Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-F4/80 antibody [CI:A3-1] - Macrophage Marker (AB6640)
ab6640 stained Raw 264.7 cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed for 5 minutes at room temperatureand then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal Goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1hour at room temperature to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab6640 at 5μg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (pseudo-colored green) was ab150165 Goat Anti-Rat IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (pseudo-colored red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1hour at room temperature. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (pseudo-colored blue) at a concentration of 1.43μM for 1hour at room temperature.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-F4/80 antibody [CI:A3-1] - Macrophage Marker (AB6640)
ab6640 staining F4/80 in mouse bone marrow cells by immunocytochemistry/ immunofluorescence. Cells were formaldehyde fixed and permeabilized in 0.2% Triton X-100 prior to blocking in 2% BSA for 30 minutes at 20°C. The primary antibody was diluted at 1/200 and incubated with the sample for 9 hour at 4°C. Alexa fluor® 488 goat polyclonal to rat Ig diluted 1/200 was used as the secondary antibody.

Biological function summary
The protein functions in the immune response by promoting phagocytosis and the clearance of apoptotic cells. It contributes to mediating anti-inflammatory responses and is associated with the regulation of cellular immune responses. Although not part of a larger protein complex F4/80 plays a critical role in the differentiation and maturation of macrophages. It is often used as a reliable f4/80 marker in immunohistochemistry (IHC) to identify and study macrophages within tissues.
Pathways
The function of F4/80 influences the Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathway and cytokine production regulatory pathways. These pathways contribute to the innate immune response by recognizing microbial pathogens and activating inflammatory responses. F4/80 interacts with other proteins such as CD11b which is also involved in these immune responses aligning their functions to regulate the activity of macrophages and coordinate with other immune cells.
