Basic Information | |
Specificity | The OX-17 antigenic determinant is isotypic and on the alpha chain. OX-17 labels B but not T cells from lymph node or thoracic duct lymph but very weakly labels thymocytes and does not label erythrocytes. OX-17 does not cross-react with Rat Ia-A or Mouse Ia-E antigen. The target antigen is expressed on antigen presenting cells, including B cells, macrophages and dendritic cells. RT1-D is a rat MHC class II protein. RT1-D is equivalent to mouse I-E antigen. |
Alternative Name | MHC class II RT1D alpha chain antigen; OX17; MRC OX-17; MRC OX17 |
UniProt | O98172 |
Immunogen | OX-17 was generated using BALB/c mice raised against rat spleen glycoproteins depleted of the Ia-A antigen using an OX-6 immunoaffinity column. |
Application Notes | This antibody binds to rat MHC Class I, and has been used to show that, in an in vivo rat model, antibodies against MHC class I antigens from stored blood may precipitate transfusion-related acute lung injury (Kelher, 2009). |
