CD68 antibody | Ki-M7
FITC conjugated Mouse anti Human CD68 antibody, clone Ki-M7 used to evaluate CD68 expression on stimulated and cultured monocytes by flow cytometry.
Image caption:
Representative figure of unstimulated and CL075-stimulated monocytes stained with CD68 antibody. Fresh PBMC from healthy adult were stimulated with 5 μg/mL CL075 or cultured in media only for 6 h, in the presence of brefeldin A. Intracellular CD68 staining was performed. Staining with isotype matched control antibody is also included.

Antibody Quality and Performance Guarantee
| Mouse anti Human CD68 antibody, clone Ki-M7 recognizes human CD68 an integral membrane glycoprotein of ~110 kDa also known as Macrosialin or Gp110. CD68 is predominantly expressed on the intracellular lysosomes of macrophages/monocytes, including Kupffer cells, microglia, histiocytes and osteoclasts, and is expressed to a lesser extent by dendritic cells and peripheral blood granulocytes. Elevated expression of CD68 has been demonstrated on CD34+ cells in various human malignancies, including Acute Myeloid Leukemia. In immunohistochemistry, CD68 can be used to aid in the identification of blastic NK lymphomas, some B cell lymphomas, and to help diagnose disorders relating to macrophage abnormalities, including malignant histocytosis and Gaucher’s disease. Clone Ki-M7 has also been reported as being suitable for use in immunoprecipitation. |
