Description
Mouse anti Rat CD86 antibody, clone 24F recognizes rat CD86, otherwise known as B7-2, a type I transmembrane protein and member of the Ig superfamily, which acts as a ligand for both CD28 and CD152 (CTLA-4), and is primarily expressed on antigen presenting cells (APCs) including dendritic cells, and also on germinal centre B cells and macrophages. Like CD80, CD86 is an accessory molecule which functions in the CD28-CD80/CD86 co-stimulatory pathway, vital for T cell activation, crosstalk between T and B cells, and Th2-mediated Ig production. Mouse anti Rat CD86 antibody, clone 24F has been shown to block the co-stimulatory activity of rat CD86 (Maeda et al. 1997).
