Miltenyi Biotec Identification and Enumeration of Cd304 (Bdca-4)+ Cells By Flow Cytometry; 30 Tests in 60 µL

Miltenyi Biotec Clone REA774 recognizes the human CD304 (BDCA-4) antigen. Like CD303 (BDCA-2), the CD304 (BDCA-4) antigen is specifically expressed on human plasmacytoid dendritic cells in blood and bone marrow. Unlike CD303 (BDCA-2), expression of CD304 (BDCA-4) is up-regulated on plasmacytoid dendritic cells and induced on myeloid cells upon culturing. In inflamed tonsils, CD304 expression, apart from plasmacytoid dendritic cells, is also detected primarily on follicular B helper memory T cells. The CD304 (BDCA-4) is identical to neuropilin-1 (NP-1), a neuronal receptor, which is known to be expressed on numerous nonhematopoietic cell types, including neurons, endothelial, and tumor cells. CD1a+ dendritic cells generated ex vivo from monocytes or hematopoietic precursor cells are CD304+ but CD303 (BDCA-2)–. | Additional information: Clone REA774 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. - MLTY (Additional S&H or Hazmat Fees May Apply)
