This data was developed using ab64088, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation
The BOND™ Polymer Refine Detection System on the BOND RX Automated Stainer (DS9800, Leica Biosystems, Wetzlar, Germany) was used for immunohistochemical labelling of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. The protocol includes a peroxide block, post-primary reagent, polymer detection, DAB chromogen, and haematoxylin counterstain, all automated to minimize variability. Antigen retrieval was performed by heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) for 20 minutes in Tris-EDTA buffer (BOND Epitope Retrieval Solution 2, AR9640, Leica Biosystems, Wetzlar, Germany). For mouse and rabbit antibodies, the sequence comprised peroxide block (10 min), primary antibody incubation (30 min), post-primary (10 min), polymer (10 min), DAB (10 min), and haematoxylin (8 min). For rat antibodies, an anti-rat step (1 : 300 dilution, Vector Laboratories, California, USA; 20 min) was included prior to polymer application (15 min).
For mouse tissues, antigen retrieval was performed using high pH buffers (Dako, Agilent), followed by blocking of endogenous peroxidase activity with 3% hydrogen peroxide. Slides were then incubated with the primary antibody. Antigen/antibody complexes detection was carried out using a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated visualization system (Novolink Polymer, Leica). Staining was developed with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine (EnVision FLEX DAB Enhancer, Dako, Agilent), and nuclei were counterstained with hematoxylin (FLEX Hematoxylin, SM806, Dako, Agilent). Images were acquired using an Axiocam CCD camera (Zeiss) and processed with ZEN 2.1 software and Photoshop 9.0.

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.
