Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CD1a antibody [SP157] - BSA and Azide free (AB240411)

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human skin tissue stained for CD1a using ab231440 at 1/100 dilution in immunohistochemical analysis.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, and sodium azide (ab231440).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of Human skin tissue sections labeling CD1a with ab231440 at 1/100 dilution (2.32 μg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with ab93684 (Tris/EDTA buffer, pH 9.0). Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) was used as the secondary antibody. Hematoxylin was used as a counterstain. Positive staining on langerhans cell human skin. This image was generated using ab231440, the same clone, but with a different buffer formulation.

Supplementary information

CD1a also known as T6 antigen or CD1 is a protein with an estimated molecular mass of 37 kDa. It is expressed mainly on the surface of Langerhans cells in the skin and dendritic cells in the thymus. CD1a belongs to the CD1 family which presents lipid antigens to T cells. The protein is an important marker in immunophenotyping of these dendritic cells making it useful in flow cytometry applications.
Biological function summary

CD1a participates in the immune system by presenting lipid and glycolipid antigens to T lymphocytes including natural killer T (NKT) cells. It forms a complex with β2-microglobulin which is essential for its proper function and antigen presentation. CD1a expression helps differentiate between types of dendritic cells with CD1a-positive cells often engaging in specific responses to microbial lipid antigens.

Pathways

CD1a plays a significant role in the antigen presentation pathway particularly in lipid antigen presentation to T cells. This is important for initiating immune responses. It interacts with related proteins such as CD1b and CD1c which also present lipid antigens. CD1a has implications in innate and adaptive immunity and can influence pathways involved in microbial recognition and elimination.

CD1a is associated with certain skin conditions like Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and psoriasis. It is involved in the pathogenesis of these diseases by affecting immune responses in the skin. In Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis CD1a-positive cells accumulate abnormally. Additionally CD1a is often studied alongside related proteins like CD207 (Langerin) to understand these conditions better.
