Flow Cytometry - Anti-CD18 antibody [2E6] (AB119347)
Flow cytometry analysis of CD18 in mouse splenocytes (green) compared to an isotype control (blue). Human blood was collected, combined with a hydrophilic polysaccharide, centrifuged, transferred to a conical tube and washed with PBS. 50 ul of cell solution was added to each tube at a dilution of 2x10^7 cells/ml, followed by the addition of 50 ul of isotype control and primary antibody (ab119347) at a dilution of 2 ug/test. Cells were incubated for 30 min at 4°C and washed with a cell buffer, followed by incubation with a DyLight 488-conjugated secondary antibody for 30 min at 4°C in the dark. FACS analysis was performed using 400 ul of cell buffer.

Biological function summary
The CD18 protein functions in conjunction with associated alpha subunit partners forming a part of the wider integrin family complex. ItgB2 as it is sometimes referred to is essential for cell adhesion processes. These heterodimers facilitate binding between leukocytes and various ligands on endothelial cells which subsequently controls leukocyte transmigration through vascular walls. CD18's activities are critical in immune system responses making it a prominent focus in immunological research.
Pathways
The role of CD18 extends into inflammatory and immune response signaling pathways. It contributes critically to the leukocyte adhesion cascade. This cascade engagement involves interaction with other proteins such as ICAM-1 on endothelial surfaces. CD18 through its association in integrin-mediated signaling influences processes like phagocytosis and lymphocyte activation giving it a central place in cellular immunity.
