Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-CD20 antibody [EP459Y] (AB78237)
Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of Ramos (human Burkitt's lymphoma B lymphocyte) labeling CD20 with purified ab78237 at 1/10 dilution. Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) at 1/1000 was used as the secondary antibody. Cells were counterstained with ab195889, Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/200. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as negative control. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue).

Flow cytometry overlay histogram showing left Ramos positive cells and right negative HEK293 stained with ab78237 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilised with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS containing 10μg/ml human IgG and 10% normal goat serum to block FC receptors and non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab78237) (1x 106 in 100μl at 0.2μg/ml (1/2500)) for 30min at 22°C.
The secondary antibody Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed was incubated at 1/4000 for 30min at 22°C
Isotype control antibody (black line) was Recombinant Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.
Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 50 mW Blue laser (488nm) and 525/40 bandpass filter.
This antibody gave a positive signal in Ramos Fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) / permeabilised with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min under the same conditions.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CD20 antibody [EP459Y] (AB78237)
Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded human spleen labelling CD20 with ab78237 at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with a OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with DISCOVERY cell conditioning solution (CC1) 100°C, pH 8.5 for 32mins.
ab78237 anti-CD20 [EP459Y] was incubated for 16mins at 37°C. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin II. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.
Customers are encouraged to optimise antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentration, incubation times and temperature for best results in their own IHC assay workflow (automated and manual).

Biological function summary
CD20 contributes significantly to calcium ion transport which is essential for the activation process of B-cells. Although CD20 does not belong to a larger protein complex its role centers around forming a calcium channel that allows a sustained influx of calcium into the B-cells. This influx is important for the signaling pathways that govern B-cell activation proliferation and differentiation impacting the immune response efficacy.
Pathways
CD20 is closely involved in the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway and the Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis pathway. These pathways play vital roles in adaptive immunity and immune response modulation. CD20's interaction with proteins like PI3K during BCR signaling enhances receptor-mediated cellular signals subsequently influencing downstream effectors involved in cell growth and survival of B-cells.
