CD161 antibody | B199.2
Mouse anti Hyman CD161 antibody, clone B199.2 (MCA1855) used for the evaluation of CD161 expression on peripheral blood mononuclear cells by flow cytometry.
Image caption:
Assessment of lymphocyte subsets in individuals carrying different CD161 genotypes. PBMC were isolated and stained with the antibody combinations CD161/CD3/CD4 or CD161/CD3/CD56. Analyses were performed in gated viable lymphocytes as defined by forward- and side-scatter characteristics. (A) CD161 expression patterns on CD3- NK cells. Representative dot-plots obtained after staining of cells from one TT, TC, and CC individual are shown. Boxes indicate the CD56brightCD161+CD3- NK cell subset and the frequency. The numbers indicate % positive cells in each quadrant. (B) Decreased frequency of CD3-CD56+ NK cells in CC carriers. PBMC from 27 TT, 51 TC, and 16 carriers of CC were analyzed. Results are expressed as % NK cells among gated lymphocytes; the mean value calculated for each cohort is indicated by the horizontal line; *p< 0.05 (ANOVA). (C) Ratios of CD56dim to CD56bright NK cells. The frequencies of CD56dimCD161+CD3- and CD56brightCD161+CD3- NK cells were determined in gated lymphocytes from 22 TT, 46 TC, and 15 carriers of CC. The horizontal broken line is an arbitrary cut-off value. (D) Level of CD161 expression. Data are expressed as mean fluorescence intensity/MFI on gated CD3-CD56+ NK cells. (E) Proportion of NK cells co-expressing CD161. Data are expressed as % CD161+ cells in gated CD3-CD56+ NK cells. (F) CD161 expression patterns on CD3+ T cells. The numbers indicate % positive cells in each quadrant. (G) Proportion of CD4+ T cells co-expressing CD161. (H) Proportion of CD8+ T cells co-expressing CD161dim or CD161bright.

Mouse anti Hyman CD161 antibody, clone B199.2 (MCA1855) used for the evaluation of CD161 expression on transfected HEK-293 cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells by western blotting and flow cytometry using phycoerythrin conjugated Mouse anti Human CD161 antibody clone B199.1 (MCA1855PE).
Image caption:
Characterization of 293 transfectants. 293 cells were Mock-transfected with the empty pIRES2-AcGFP1 vector or vectors containing CD161 from a homozygous TT or CC individual. Analyses were performed after selection of stable transfectants. (A) Flow cytometry analysis of 293-mock, 293-CD161/TT, and 293-CD161/CC cells after staining with the PE-conjugated anti-CD161 mAb B199.2. Grey histograms represent staining with an isotype control mAb. The numbers represent mean fluorescence intensity obtained by anti-CD161 staining. (B) Detection of CD161 by Western-blotting. 293 transfectants were lysed, and protein lysates were separated by 9% SDS-PAGE. After transferring to PVDF membranes, samples were probed with the anti-CD161 mAb (B199.2). Binding of B199.2 was visualized by HRP-conjugated goat anti-mouse-IgG and ECL reagents. Protein loading was controlled by staining with a mAb against α-Actin. Representative results of at least two independent experiments are shown. Lysates of PBMC activated for five days with IL-12 were used as a further control to estimate the molecular weight of CD161 molecules.

Image caption:
Characterization of the ligand-binding domain of CD161/TT and CD161/CC receptors. (A) Fluorescence histograms obtained after incubation of 293-CD161/TT and -CD161/CC transfectants with control Ig-Fc (closed histograms) and LLT1-Fc or LLT1-Fc proteins multimerized by protein A (open histograms). Binding of the recombinant protein to CD161 was demonstrated by PE-conjugated goat anti-human IgG. (B) Dose-effect relationship of LLT1-Fc binding. 293-CD161/TT and -CD161/CC cells were incubated with increasing amounts of LLT1-Fc. Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) was determined after a second incubation step with PE-conjugated goat anti-human IgG. Results represent mean values ± SEM calculated for three independent experiments; *p< 0.05 (Unpaired t-test). (C) Epitope-specific antibody competition in CD161/TT and -CC receptor variants. 293-CD161/TT and -CC cells were incubated with a fixed concentration (10 μg/ml) of PE-labelled anti-CD161 mAb B199.2 alone and in combination with increasing amounts of competing anti-CD161 mAb 191B8 (IgG2a) or the anti-pig MHC class-II mAb MSA3 as IgG2a isotype control. Samples were analysed by flow cytometry and PE-MFI was determined. Competition is shown as % binding of mAb B199.2 and was calculated as follows: MFI (B199.2 plus 191B8) / MFI (B199.2 plus MSA3) x 100. MFI obtained with B199.2 in the absence of competing antibody was set as 100%. Results represent mean values ± SD calculated for five independent experiments; *p<0.05 (Unpaired t-test).

Antibody Quality and 
Unrivaled 
| Mouse anti Human CD161 antibody, clone B199.2 recognizes the human Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1, also known as CD161, C-type lectin domain family 5 member B, HNKR-P1a, NKR-P1A or Natural killer cell surface protein P1A. CD161 is a 225 amino acid ~25 kDa predicted molecular mass, single pass type II transmembrane glycoprotein with a single C-type lectin domain. CD161 is expressed by almost all NK cells and a subset of CD3+ve T cells (Lanier 1994). CD161, a member of the C-lectin is expressed as a disulphide bond-linked homodimeric cell surface protein, comprising two chains of ~40-44 kDa (Lanier et al. 1994). CD161 acts as a receptor for another c-type lectin, LLT1 with roles in the regulation of NK cell and T cell function (Aldemir et al. 2005). Mouse anti Human CD161 antibody, clone B199.2 cross-competes with and recognizes a similar epitope to the DX1 monoclonal antibody (Lanier et al. 1994). |
