- Application
-
Neut - Quality tested
- Recommended Usage
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by neutralization of the chemotaxis induced by recombinant human CXCL13 (5.0 ?g/mL) on mouse Baf3-hCCR5 transfectants chemoattractant cells. ND50 range: 0.1 - 1.5 μg/mL. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Antigen Details
- Structure
- Chemokine
- Distribution
-
Follicular dendritic cells, monocytes, macrophages, and stromal cells from germinal centers. CXCL13 is derived from endothelial cells, synovial fibroblasts, and follicular dendritic cells in RA.
- Function
- CXCL13 chemoattracts B cells and is a key chemokine for B cell entry into lymphoid follicles. It also takes part in the formation of ectopic lymphoid tissue in chronic inflammation. CXCL13 production by follicular Th cells is induced by TCR activation.
- Interaction
- B cells and follicular helper CD4 T cells
- Ligand/Receptor
- CXCR5 (CD185)
- Cell Type
- B cells, Macrophages, T cells
- Biology Area
- Cell Biology, Immuno-Oncology, Immunology, Signal Transduction
- Molecular Family
- Cytokines/Chemokines
