Mouse anti Pig CD27:FITC

Description:

Mouse anti pig CD27 antibody, clone B30C7 recognizes the porcine homologue of human CD27, previously known as Swine Workshop Cluster 2 (SWC2), a T-cell co-stimulatory molecule belonging to the TNF receptor family. In humans the CD27 antigen is expressed by discrete populations of T- and B-cells where it functions in a co-stimulatory role to induce proliferation of T-cells and B-cells, however, using the B30C7 clone, expression of CD27 on porcine B-cells appears undetectable.
Porcine CD27 is expressed by all naïve CD8a^-ve T-helper cells and a sub-population of CD8a^+ve cells.
Monoclonal antibodies to CD27 have previously been used to differentiate between subsets of NK cells and clone B30C7 may be used to differentiate between subsets of pig NK cells.
