Anti-CD123 Antibody, FITC-Labeled
This anti-CD123 antibody is a human purified recombinant antibody, which is labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). This antibody has been tested by flow cytometry for binding to human CD123 on the surface of CD123 CHO Recombinant Cells (BPS Bioscience #79640-H).
≥90%
Aqueous buffer solution.
8 mM Phosphate, pH 7.4, 110 mM NaCl, 2.2 mM KCl, 0.09% Sodium Azide, 0.2% BSA, and up to 20% glycerol. May contain a protein stabilizer.
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a derivative of fluorescein and has excitation and emission spectrum peak wavelengths of approximately 495 nm and 519 nm, causing it to fluoresce green.
CD123, also known as interleukin 3 receptor alpha (IL3Ra), is a transmembrane protein found in pluripotent progenitor cells and involved in hematopoietic lineage differentiation. It can also be found in basophils, plasmacytoid dendritic cells and dendritic cells. CD123 is overexpressed on leukemic hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), but not normal HSCs. It has been found in acute myeloid and B-lymphoid leukemias, blastic plasmacytoid dendritic neoplasms (BPDCN) and hairy cell leukemia. This expression profile makes CD123 an attractive target in cancer therapy. CAR-Ts and other therapies targeting CD123 are currently being evaluated in clinical trials.
