The Mouse CD28 Monoclonal Antibody (APC-conjugated) AGEL0768 is a crucial tool for research involving the CD28 protein, a costimulatory molecule essential for T cell activation and proliferation. This antibody, generated using a monoclonal approach, shows high specificity and sensitivity towards mouse samples, making it an ideal choice for flow cytometry applications. By binding specifically to CD28, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis of CD28 expression on various immune cells, facilitating investigations in immunology and vaccine development.CD28 is a co-stimulatory receptor expressed on T cells that plays a pivotal role in the regulation of immune responses by providing signals for T cell activation and effector functions.
Understanding the function and expression pattern of CD28 is crucial for unraveling the mechanisms underlying T cell activation and tolerance, making this antibody an invaluable resource for studies in autoimmune diseases, transplantation, infectious diseases, and immunotherapy research. By targeting CD28, researchers can explore novel strategies to modulate immune responses and design innovative immunotherapies for various pathological conditions.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use. We suggest each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results [The recommended concentration is 0.1-1 μg/106 cells in 100 μL volume].

Background:
CD28 is a 44 kD glycoprotein, also known as Tp44 or T44. It is a member of the Ig superfamily, expressed on thymocytes, most peripheral T cells, and NK cells. In association with CD80 (B7-1) and CD86 (B7-2), CD28 acts as the second signal for T and NK cell activation and proliferation. The 37.51 antibody has been reported to augment in vitro T cell proliferation and cytokine production, and promote CTL development.
