CD8-α Antibody (53-6.7) is a rat monoclonal IgG2a antibody that targets the CD8-α chain in mice and is recommended for use in immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), and flow cytometry (FCM). CD8-α monoclonal antibody (53-6.7) is raised against spleen cells from mice and recognizes CD8-α, also known as T8 or Leu-2, a critical component of the T cell receptor (TCR) complex on cytotoxic T lymphocytes. CD8-α acts as a co-receptor, binding to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules on antigen-presenting cells (APCs), enhancing antigen recognition and TCR signaling, which is essential for the immune system′s ability to target and eliminate infected or malignant cells. The study of CD8-α is pivotal for understanding adaptive immune responses, autoimmune conditions, and the development of novel therapeutic strategies, making CD8-α antibody (53-6.7) an invaluable tool for researchers aiming to investigate T cell-mediated immunity and its implications in various disease models. Available in both conjugated and unconjugated forms, CD8-α monoclonal antibody (53-6.7) is a versatile tool for various experimental applications.
