Flow Cytometry - APC Anti-CD2 antibody [OX34] (AB256307)
Lewis rat splenocytes stained with ab256307 (right) or mouse IgG2aκ Allophycocyanin isotype (left). Lewis rat splenocytes were incubated for 30 min on ice in 1x PBS / 10 % rat serum to block FC receptors and non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab256307) or mouse IgG2aκ Allophycocyanin isotype (1x 106 in 100 μl at 0.2 μg/ml (1/2500)) for 30 min on ice. The cells were simultaneously stained with CD3.
Acquisition of >30,000 events were collected using a 40 mW Red laser (640nm) and 670/14 bandpass filter. Events were gated on viable lymphocytes.

Biological function summary
The functioning of CD2 helps in the modulation of immune responses and T-cell activation. CD2 participates in signal transduction leading to cytokine production and proliferation. It is associated with the immunological synapse complex working closely with other surface molecules like Lck and CD3 to promote T-cell responses. This collaboration is vital for the development and function of immune cells driving adaptive immunity.
Pathways
CD2 engages in pathways integral to T-cell activation and signal transduction. A well-known pathway involving CD2 is the TCR (T-cell Receptor) signaling pathway where it partners with CD3 to initiate T-cell activation. Additionally CD2 influences the LAT (Linker for Activation of T-cells) pathway contributing to downstream signaling cascades that involve various signaling proteins such as Lck and ZAP-70 ensuring proper T-cell function.
