Mouse Anti-Chicken CD8α

ANTIGEN DESCRIPTION
In the chicken, the CD8 molecule is present in two forms: (i) a homodimer of two α chains, and (ii) a heterodimer of an α chain and a β chain.[1] While the vast majority of CD8+ cells in the thymus, spleen, and blood of adult chickens express both CD8α- and CD8β-chains, a relatively large proportion of the CD8+ TCR-γδ cells in the spleens of embryos and young chicks express only the α-chain of CD8. Among intestinal epithelial lymphocytes, the major CD8+ T cell populations present in mice are conserved, but there is a population of TCR-γδ CD8αβ cells in the chicken that is not found in rodents.[1,3] Chicken CD8 is expressed on approximately 80% of thymocytes, 15% of blood mononuclear cells and 50% of spleen cells, but <1% of cells in the bursa and bone marrow.[1,2] MAb CT-8 recognizes the CD8α chain.[1]

NOTE: *SpectralRedTM (SPRD) is a tandem conjugate of R-phycoerythrin and CYTM5. It was developed as a reagent for 3-color flow cytometry on instruments with only 488 nm excitation source. It requires minimal (0-2%) FL2/FL3 compensation.
