Datasheet Extract

Alternate namesPossibly Recognizing A Scavenger Receptor
Concentration0.2 mg/ml
Immunogen24h cultivated human peritoneal macrophages
Format
State: Lyophilized purified Ig fraction.
Purification: Affinity chromatography.
BufferSystem: PBS, pH 7.2 with 10 mg/ml bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a stabilizer and 0.01% thimerosal as a preservative.
Reconstitution: Restore with 0.5 ml distilled water.
ApplicationsSuitable for Immunohistochemistry on:
Frozen sections: 0.5 µg/ml (1/400)
Paraffin sections: does not react on routinely processed
paraffin sections.
Suggested positive control: Human tonsil.
Antigen distribution on Isolated cells and Tissue sections:
Positive on >90% of alveolar macrophages, and on 10% of adherent peritoneal cells after 1 day culture.
Negative on dendritic cells, on freshly isolated blood monocytes or peritoneal cells; and on bone marrow cells including monocytes, myelomonocytic precursors and megakaryocytes.
PM-2K stains most tissue macrophages in lymphoreticular organs such as thymus, spleen, lymph node and tonsil.
It is positive on Kupffer cells of the liver, alveolar macrophages and macrophages in the interstitial tissues of the kidney, pancreas and many other organs. In Gaucher's disease multicentric reticulohistiocytosis and malignant histiocytosis proliferating macrophages are positive. In MFH infiltrating macrophages are stained but not tumour cells. Some bone stromal cells but not osteoclast-like multinucleated giant cells are stained in GCT. Microglial cells, osteoclasts and dendritic cells such as Langerhans cells, interdigitating cells and follicular dendritic cells are negative.
SpecificityPM-2K, together with X-4 and X-14, forms a particular group of macrophage specific antibodies which were classified at the V Leukocyte Typing Workshop held in Boston in 1993. PM-2K recognises tissue macrophages and macrophages in proliferative disorders of macrophages. PM-2K is one of the markers that, being negative on dendritic cells, can differentiate between macrophages and dendritic cells.
This antibody reacts with human macrophages.
Positive on macrophages of cat, dog, pig, bovine and monkey.
Negative in rabbit, rat, guinea pig, gold hamster, goat, horse.
Under non-reducing conditions PM-2K recognizes an antigen of 150kD (Western blot) which has been shown to be on cytoplasmic membranes.
StorageStore the antibody at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C for longer.
Do not freeze working dilutions
Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Shelf life: One year from despatch.

8. Wash in PBS
9. Incubate with AEC substrate (3-amino-9-ethylcarbazol) for 12min.
10. Wash in PBS
11. Counterstain with Mayer's hemalum.
