Anti-Human CD8 In Vivo Antibody - Ultra Low Endotoxin
Introducing the Anti-Human CD8 In Vivo Antibody - Ultra Low Endotoxin from Assay Genie, a premium monoclonal antibody specifically crafted for in vivo research applications. This antibody targets the CD8 protein, which is pivotal in immune responses, making it an excellent tool for immunology studies and related fields.
With a mouse IgG1 isotype, it guarantees exceptional purity and ultra-low endotoxin levels (<0.01 EU/μg), making it ideal for use in ELISA, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and other investigative assays. Available in various sizes, it is formulated in pharmaceutical-grade phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for optimal stability and performance. Elevate your research with this dependable and versatile antibody. CD8 is a glycoprotein found primarily on the surface of cytotoxic T cells (CD8+ T cells), as well as some subsets of natural killer (NK) cells and dendritic cells. It plays a critical role in the immune system by facilitating the recognition and destruction of infected or cancerous cells through interaction with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules.

CD8 is made up of disulfide-linked α and β chains that form the α(CD8a)/β(CD8b) heterodimer and α/α homodimer. CD8 is part of the Ig superfamily that expresses primarily as CD8a homodimers. CD8a is a 32-34 kD type I glycoprotein that can also form heterodimers with CD8b. CD8 is an antigen co-receptor on T cells that mediates efficient cell to cell interactions within the immune system. CD8 coupled with the T cell receptor on the T lymphocyte recognizes an antigen displayed by an antigen presenting cell (APC) in the context of class I MHC molecules. The CD8 co-receptor also plays a role in T cell signaling by interacting with Lck (lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase) which leads to the activation of transcription factors that affect the expression of certain genes.
