Flow cytometry using the Anti-CD163 antibody 2A10 (2A10/11) (Ab02085). Paraformaldehyde fixed pig peripheral blood monocytes permeabilized with 0.5% Triton were stained with anti-unknown specificity antibody (Ab00178-23.0; isotype control, black line) or the rabbit IgG version of 2A10 (2A10/11) (TA386521, blue line) at a dilution of 1:100 for 1h at RT. After washing, the bound antibody was detected using a goat anti-rabbit IgG AlexaFluor® 488 antibody at a dilution of 1:1000 and cells analyzed using a FACSCanto flow-cytometer.

Specifications

Product Data

• Clone Name: 2A10 (2A10/11)
• Applications: ELISA, FC, IF
• Modifications: This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
• Host: Rabbit
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Immunogen: The original antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with porcine alveolar macrophages.
• Specificity: This antibody recognizes and binds porcine CD163.
  
  This antibody is recommended to be used as a tool in the study of porcine macrophage maturation and differentiation and for determining their heterogeneity both in normal and pathological conditions. This antibody can recognize porcine CD163 in a western blot assay and an immunoprecipitation assay (PMID: 9151393). 2A10 successfully binds PAM cells in a flow cytometric analysis (PMID:23785195). Porcine CD163 has also been analyzed as potential antigen targeting receptors using mouse IgG as surrogate antigens. MAbs to CD163 induced in vitro PBMC proliferation at concentrations 50-80 fold lower than the control mAb when using, as responder cells, cells from pigs immunized with mouse serum IgGs (PMID:21557980). It is also reported that porcine mAb 2A10 antigen is homologous to human CD163 and related to macrophage differentiation (PMID: 10227997). This antibody was also used to study the role of CD163 in the process of infection of porcine monocytes/macrophages by African swine fever virus infection (PMID: 14648288). This mAb was used in a sandwich enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) to measure levels of sCD163 in porcine sera and biological fluids (Pérez et al, 2008).
