Notes

ab320061 is the PBS only version of Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] – Chicken IgY (Chimeric) ab320060.

This chicken monoclonal chimeric antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] ab300421). By design, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed FC-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

Activity summary

F4/80 also known as Emr1 (Epidermal growth factor module-containing mucin-like hormone receptor 1) is a well-characterized surface protein with a mass of approximately 160 kDa. This protein is recognized as a marker for murine macrophages. F4/80 is heavily expressed on cells of the monocyte and macrophage lineage particularly in tissue-resident macrophages found in organs like the liver spleen and lung. Its expression is vital for identifying macrophages in various types of immunological studies including F4/80 staining and macrophage marker analysis.

Biological function summary

F4/80 plays a role in modulating the immune response by interacting with other cell surface molecules. While not part of a larger protein complex F4/80 influences macrophage functions such as phagocytosis and cytokine production. Its expression contributes to the regulation of tissue homeostasis and inflammation. The protein is critical in maintaining the macrophage population required for reliable immune surveillance and response to pathogens.

Pathways

F4/80 is an integral part of the immunological and inflammatory signaling pathways. It interacts with TLRs (Toll-like receptors) and other cell surface molecules that sense microbial components therefore helping in the initiation of innate immune responses. F4/80 is connected to proteins like cytokine receptors which play roles in mediating and resolving inflammatory signals important for maintaining balanced immune activity.

Associated diseases and disorders

F4/80 is associated with conditions like chronic inflammation and autoimmune disorders. Its expression levels can often correlate with disease state impacting diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and liver fibrosis. In these conditions F4/80 interacts with proteins like TNF-alpha and IL-1beta which are involved in inflammatory processes. Understanding F4/80's role can help uncover therapeutic targets aimed at modulating macrophage functions to treat these disorders effectively.

    Immunohistochemistry - Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] – Chicken IgY (Chimeric) – BSA and Azide Free (ab320061)

    This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] ab300421).

    Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded mouse liver labelling F4/80 with Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] ab300421 at a concentration of 0.03 µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with anti-rabbit HQ and anti-HQ HRP followed by a ChromoMap DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with DISCOVERY cell conditioning solution (CC1) 100°C, pH 8.5 for 32mins.

    Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] ab300421 Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] was incubated for 16 mins 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).

    ab320061 staining F4/80 in Raw264.7 (positive) and NIH/3T3 (negative) cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab320061 at 5µg/ml (shown in green) and Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [EP1332Y] - Microtubule Marker ab202272, Alexa Fluor® 594 Rabbit monoclonal [EP1332Y] to alpha Tubulin - Microtubule Marker (shown in pseudocolour magenta). Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150173, Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution. Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-F4/80 antibody [EPR26545-166] – Chicken IgY (Chimeric) – BSA and Azide Free (ab320061)

    Immunofluorescence staining of F4/80 in sections of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded mouse spleen (positive) and mouse pancreas (negative).
    Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate (pH6.0) for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab320061 at 1/100 dilution and then incubated for 1 hour with Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150173, Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®.
    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.
