RT1.A
-
DescriptionCedarlane's anti-rat RT1.A monoclonal antibody recognizes a monomorphic determinant of rat Class I MHC antigen (RT1.A) and thus reacts with all rat strains tested including AO(RT1µ), DA (RT1a), LEW (RT11) and PVG (RT1c). However, quantitative measurements suggest that only a subfraction of the total Class I molecules are recognized (2). Clone OX-18 labels all peripheral lymphocytes but only a sub-fraction of thymocytes. It may be that the weakly labeled cells do in fact express some RT1.A antigenic determinants but there is clearly a major quantitative difference amongst thymocytes. This monoclonal used in tissue sections preferentially labels lymphoid cells in the medulla of the thymus including those cells with the marker phenotype of mature T lymphocytes (2).______________________________________________________________________________________________________Flow Cytometry AnalysisFischer rat splenocytes were stained with anti-RT1.A (clone: OX-18) (filled histogram) or mouse IgG1, k isotype control (open histogram).
