The monoclonal antibody 2G8 reacts with the mouse CXC chemokine receptor, CXCR5. CXCR5 (a.k.a. BLR1, NLR and MDR15), a seven-transmembrane, G-protein-coupled receptor, is the specific receptor for CXC chemokines, CXCL13/BLC/BCA-1. The expression of CXCR5 has been detected in spleen, lymph nodes, tonsils, brain, bone marrow, T cells, B cells, cerebrum, cerebellum, hippcampus and pituitary. In mouse spleen, CXCR5 was strictly expressed by mature B cells and a small subset of T lymphocytes. The immunogen used to generate 2G8 hybridoma was a recombinant protein containing N-terminal amino acids of mouse CXCR5 (GST-NmBLR1). This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested during antibody development only or reported in the literature. Detection of CXCR5 expression on mouse splenocytes by purified 2G8. Mouse splenocytes were stained with 0.25/test μg of purified 2G8 using 3-step staining protocol below and anti-mouse CD45R/B220-FITC (Cat. No. 553088). The data reflects gating on lymphocytes, based on forward and side scattered light signals. The level of nonspecific staining was assessed by using purified rat IgG2a (Cat. No. 553927) as isotype control. The quadrant markers for the bivariate dot plots were set based on the isotype control.
