Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Tween-20 permeabilized Mouse splenocyte cells labelling LY6C with ab305229 at a 1/100 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) secondary antibody at a 1/1000 dilution. Confocal image showing cytoplasmic staining in subsets of mouse splenocytes (shown in green), which is partially co-located with CD11b. Nuclear DNA was labeled with DAPI (shown in blue).

Counterstained with Anti-CD11b Rat monoclonal antibody (ab8878) at a 1/1000 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rat IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab150160) at a 1/1000 dilution (shown in magenta).

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

The negative controls are as follows :

-ve control 1 : LY6C (ab305229) at a 1/100 dilution, followed by Goat anti-Rat IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab150160) secondary at a 1/1000 dilution.

-ve control 2 : Anti-CD11b Rat monoclonal antibody (ab8878) at a 1/200 dilution, followed by Goat anti-Rabbit (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at a 1/1000 dilution.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab305229).

Supplementary information

Ly6c also known as Ly-6C is a protein marker with a molecular weight of approximately 18 kDa. It is part of the Ly6 family of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell surface proteins. Ly6c is predominantly expressed in mice on the surface of certain immune cells including monocytes macrophages dendritic cells and subsets of T cells. The expression levels can vary depending on the cell type and the activation or developmental stage of the cell. Ly6c serves as a useful marker in immunological studies to distinguish between different subsets of monocytes commonly identified as Ly6c^high and Ly6c^low populations.
Biological function summary

Ly6c is involved in the differentiation and trafficking of immune cells. It is not known to be part of a larger protein complex. In the immune system the Ly6c marker is critical for distinguishing between classical and non-classical monocytes in mice. Classical monocytes expressing high levels of Ly6c are involved in rapid response to inflammatory stimuli while non-classical monocytes with lower Ly6c expression help in patrolling blood vessels. This distinction is important in understanding how the immune system responds to various infections and how the body maintains immune homeostasis.

Pathways

Ly6c plays a role in the monocyte recruitment and differentiation pathways. It is closely related to the chemokine signaling pathway influencing how immune cells migrate towards sites of inflammation or injury. The presence of the Ly6c2 protein an isoform of Ly6c helps modulate these responses by interacting with cytokines and chemokines that guide the trafficking of immune cells. The presence of Ly6c influences the activity of proteins like CCR2 which plays a significant role in chemotaxis in response to inflammation.

Ly6c is associated with inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. For example high Ly6c expression has been linked to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and atherosclerosis. In IBD the ability of Ly6c^high monocytes to migrate to the gut and promote inflammation is well-documented. Similarly in atherosclerosis the recruitment of Ly6c^high monocytes to blood vessels contributes to plaque formation. In these contexts proteins like MCP-1 (also known as CCL2) interact with Ly6c-expressing cells facilitating their movement and function in disease processes. Understanding the role of Ly6c in these conditions might help develop targeted therapies to mitigate chronic inflammation and related diseases.
