Description | The CD68 antigen is a heavily glycosylated transmembrane protein of 87-115 kDa which is specifically expressed by tissue macrophages, Langerhans cells and, at low levels, by dendriticcells. CD68 could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracel-lular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. CD68 marks cells of monocyte/macrophage lineage. This antibody is capable of staining monocytes, Kupffer cells, osteoclasts, granulocytes and their precursors; Lymphomas are negative or show a few granules. This antibody may be useful for the identification of Myelomonocytic and Histiocytic Tumors. CD68 may help to distinguish Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma from other Pleomorphic Sa |
Immunogen | Immunogen: Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues from the internal region of the humanCD68 protein. Precautions: 1. For professional users only. Ensure results are interpreted by a medical professional. 2. This product contains sodium azide (NaN3), a toxic chemical which may react with plumbing to form highly explosive build-ups of metal azides. Upon disposal, flush with large volumes of water to prevent sodium azide build-up. 3. Ensure proper handling procedures are used with reagent. Al |
