CloneID: MECA-89
Antigen Long Description: Endothelial cells isolated from BALB/c mouse mesenteric and peripheral lymph nodes.
Buffer Composition: PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Available Custom Conjugation Options: AP, HRP, Fluorescein, APC, PE, Biotin Type A, Biotin Type B, Streptavidin, FluoroProbes 647H, Atto488, APC/Cy7, PE/Cy7
Specificity Statement: The antibody is specific for mouse MAdCAM-1. The antibody recognizes the second immunoglobulin domain, interfering with L-selectin interactions of MAdCAM-1. The mucosal lymphocyte homing receptor MAdCAM-1 is expressed in the high endothelial venules of the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) and Peyer's patches (PP) and in the flat epithelium of the lamina propria (LP).
Application Notes (Clone): The antibody bound to the second domain of MAdCAM-1 and did not block MAdCAM-1-dependent binding in vitro (Streeter et al., 1988; PMID:3340147). The antibody was used for immunohistochemical analysis of healthy AKR control mice and it showed faint basal expression of MAdCAM-1 in the terminal ileum (Bachmann et al. 2006). The antibody blocked interactions with L-selectin in vivo (Bargatze et al., 1995; PMID: 7542550).
