FDC; FDCs; Follicular dendritic cell; Follicular dendritic cell secreted protein; Follicular dendritic cell; Follicular dendritic cell secreted peptide; FDC secreted protein.

About

Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera.

Cross Reactive Species details

No significant cross reactivity has been observed for this antibody for the tested species. However, note that due to limited knowledge it is impossible to predict with 100% guarantee that the antibody does not corss react with any other species.

Advisory

Avoid freeze/thaw cycles as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody, thus reducing its reactivity, specificity and sensitivity. For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube. Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom.

Background information

Follicular dendritic cells are cells that facilitate antigen recognition by B cells in follicles. This kind of dendritic cell is not bone marrow derived and is not a kind of blood cell. It is purely a resident of the follicles of secondary lymphoid organs. B cells form germinal centers around follicular dendritic cells in lymphoid organs. Dendritic cells form from monocytes, white blood cells which circulate in the body and, depending on the right signal, can turn into dendritic cells or macrophages. The monocytes in turn are formed from stem cells in the bone marrow.In normal tissue this antibody identifies dendritic cells and a proportion of B lymphocytes. Evidence in pathological tissue and functional studies suggests it binds to an epitope expressed by antigen presenting cells. Within the macrophage/dendritic cell populations the epitope seen by RFD1 is coexpressed with RFD7 by a subset of cells that exhibit suppressive activity on T cell stimulation.
