Specificity

Recognizes an intracellular antigen of mouse macrophages and monocytes. It reacts strongly with macrophages in lymphoid organs such as tingible body macrophages and macrophages in T cell dependent areas and is extremely useful in immunohistochemistry. Reacts on all mouse strains tested.

Application

Detect Macrophages/Monocytes using this Anti-Macrophages/Monocytes Antibody, clone MOMA-2 validated for use in FC, IH.
Flow Cytometry: membrane permeabilization is recommended for this application.

Immunohistology: FRESH frozen sections at 1:25. The epitope recognized by MAB1852 is formaline sensitive. Fixation in fresh, acetone at 4°C or colder is strongly recommended. Specimens must be completely air dried after acetone fixation. Formalin or PFA fixation is not recommended.

Because of the lower titer, enhanced detection systems such as our poly-HRP secondaries or biotin labelled secondary antibodies followed by SA-FITC are recommended.



Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

We previously reported that deletion of brain type neuronal nitric oxide synthase-alpha (nNOS-alpha) accelerates atherosclerosis in apolipoproteinE (apoE) knockout (ko) mice. The regulation of nNOS expression is complex, involving the generation of mRNA splice variants. The current study investigates occurrence
