Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab53444 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
IHC-P: Use at an assay dependent dilution. (PubMed: 18971331)
WB: Use at an assay dependent dilution. Predicted molecular weight: 36 kDa.
IP: Use at an assay dependent dilution.
IHC-Fr: Use at an assay dependent dilution.
Flow Cyt: 1/50 - 1/100.(Use 10µl of the suggested working dilution to label 106 cells in 100µl. Membrane permeabilisation is required for this application.)
Could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. Binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma membrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells.
Highly expressed by blood monocytes and tissue macrophages. Also expressed in lymphocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Expressed in many tumor cell lines which could allow them to attach to selectins on vascular endothelium, facilitating their dissemination to secondary sites.
Belongs to the LAMP family.
N- and O-glycosylated.
Cell membrane and Endosome membrane. Lysosome membrane.

ab53444 staining mouse heart tissue by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-frozen sections). Tissue underwent fixation in paraformaldehyde, no permeabilization and blocked in 1% serum for 10 minutes at 20°C. The primary antibody used undiluted and incubated with sample for 16 hours at 20°C. A Biotin conjugated goat polyclonal to rat Ig, diluted 1/100 was used as the secondary.

ab53444 at 1/100 dilution staining CD68 in mouse spleen tissue by immunohistochemistry (frozen sections). Sections were acetone fixed prior to blocking in 8% milk for 40 minutes at 36°C and then incubated with ab53444 for 20 hours at 4°C. A biotin conjugated goat polyclonal to rat Ig, diluted 1/400, was used as the secondary antibody.
