Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-MHC Class II antibody [6C6] (AB55152)
ab55152 staining MHC Class II in Human bowel tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 5% serum for 1 hour at 21°C; antigen retrieval was enzymatic. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/50 in milk) for 21 hours at 4°C. A Biotin-conjugated Rabbit anti-mouse polyclonal (1/300) was used as the secondary antibody.
This image was generated using the ascites version of the product.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-MHC Class II antibody [6C6] (AB55152)
ICC/IF image of ab55152 stained A431 cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody ab55152 at 10μg/ml overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was DyLight® 488 goat anti- mouse (ab96879) IgG (H+L) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43μM.

Flow Cytometry - Anti-MHC Class II antibody [6C6] (AB55152)
Overlay histogram showing Raji cells stained with ab55152 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab55152, 0.5μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2a [ICIGG2A] (ab91361, 1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in Raji cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

Product details
Anti-MHC Class II antibody [6C6] (ab55152) has been cited over 33 times in peer reviewed journals and is trusted by the scientific community.
Abcams high quality validation processes ensure Anti-MHC Class II antibody [6C6] (ab55152) has high sensitivity and specificity.
Anti-MHC Class II antibody [6C6] (ab55152) specifically detects MHC Class II (UniProt ID: P04440; Molecular weight: 26kDa) and is sold in 100 ug selling sizes.
MHC Class II molecules are primarily expressed on professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) like dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells. In oncology, MHC Class II molecules play a crucial role by presenting exogenous antigens to CD4+ T cells, which is essential for initiating and regulating the immune response against tumors.

Biological function summary
MHC Class II molecules facilitate the immune system's recognition and response to pathogens by presenting processed antigenic peptides to CD4+ T lymphocytes. This activity involves their assembly within the endosomal-lysosomal system where they bind peptides derived from endocytosed proteins. MHC II is part of the major histocompatibility complex which includes other related molecules such as MHC Class I (HLA class I). The binding and presentation of peptides are central for the coordination of adaptive immune responses enhancing pathogen clearance and maintaining immunological memory.
Pathways
MHC Class II operates within the antigen processing and presentation pathway important for adaptive immunity. Its interaction with CD4+ T cells stimulates downstream signaling pathways leading to T cell activation and differentiation. Related proteins in the antigen presentation pathway include invariant chain (Ii) which guides MHC II to the endosome and HLA-DM which facilitates peptide loading. Together these proteins and pathways work to ensure effective immune surveillance and response.
