ANTIBODIES

Contributor Information
- Name Walter Bodmer

Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-Leu1 [H65]
- Alternate names: CD5 Molecule 2; Lymphocyte Antigen T1/Leu-1; LEU1; CD5 Antigen; T1
- Clone: H65
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human
- Host: Mouse
- Application: IHC ; IF ; IP ; RIA ; WB
- Strain: Balb/c
- Description: CD5 is a good immunohistochemical marker for T-cells, although not as sensitive as CD3: it was used as a T-cell marker until monoclonal antibodies against CD3 were developed (see our UCHT1 anti-CD3 antibody). It is found in 76% of T-cells neoplasms, but also in diffuse large B cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, hairy cell leukemia, and mantle cell lymphoma cells. It is commonly lost in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, and its absence can be used as an indicator of malignancy in this condition.
- Immunogen: HSB-2 cells.
- Isotype: IgG1
- Research area: Immunology; Stem cell biology
- Myeloma used: P3/NS1/1-Ag4.1
- For Research Use Only
