Rat peritoneal macrophages

Recognizes the rat equivalent of human CD11b, the receptor for the iC3b component of complement. The antigen is expressed on most macrophages, including resident and activated peritoneal macrophages and Kupffer cells and around 35% of alveolar macrophages. The antibody also labels dendritic cells, granulocytes and microglial cells in the brain. Clone MRC OX-42 has been reported as being suitable for use on paraffin-embedded material following PLP fixation (periodate-lysine-paraformaldehyde). Functionally, clone OX-42 inhibits complement mediated rosettes(1). XXX recommend the use of MCA275EL for use in functional studies.
