Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration. Product Preparation Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using in vitro cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates. Storage and Handling Functional grade preclinical antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at ≤ -70°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

Background CD115 antibody, clone AFS98, recognizes CD115, also known as mouse colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF-1R and macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor (M-CSFR). CD115 is a 150kDa single-pass type I membrane protein encoded by the c-fms gene that belongs to the type III protein tyrosine kinase receptor family. CD115 has an immunoglobulin-like extracellular domain, transmembrane domain, and C-terminal tail receptor and is expressed by monocytes, macrophages, plasmacytoid and conventional dendritic cells (DCs), osteoclasts, and their precursors. CD115 is the receptor for CSF1, also known as M-CSF, and IL-34. Binding and signaling through CD115 regulates the proliferation, differentiation, survival, and cytokine-production of monocytes and macrophages1,2. In addition, CD115 plays a key role in the differentiation and proliferation of osteoclasts as well as their bone resorption activity3. Mutations in CSF-1R are associated with cancer, including myeloid malignancies, Alzheimer’s disease, and other inflammatory and autoimmune diseases4. The presence of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) expressing CSF-1R correlates with poor survival in various tumor types5,6, and efforts to eliminate these TAMs using CSF1R small-molecule inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies are currently in clinical trials7. Antigen Distribution CD115 (CSF-1R) is expressed on monocytes/macrophages, peritoneal exudate cells, plasmacytoid cells, dendritic cells, and osteoclasts.

It may occasionally generate incorrect or incomplete responses. Please do not rely solely on its recommendations when making purchasing decisions or designing experiments. Clone AFS98 is a monoclonal antibody commonly used in in vivo mouse studies to target and block the CSF1R (CD115) receptoralso known as the macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor, expressed on monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and osteoclasts. In vivo uses of AFS98 include:
Administration and experimental protocols:
Key example applications:
Summary of mechanism: Caveats:
In short, clone AFS98 is a well-established tool in mouse research for macrophage depletion and CSF1R functional studies in vivo. Several antibodies and proteins are commonly used alongside AFS98 (an anti-mouse CSF1R/CD115 monoclonal antibody) in research, especially when studying tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), myeloid cells, or murine immune systems. Key antibodies and proteins frequently co-used with AFS98 include:
Common experimental techniques combining these antibodies/proteins with AFS98:
In typical literature, researchers combine AFS98 with F4/80, CD163, Foxp3, Ly6C, and CSF-1–either as markers or readouts–for a comprehensive assessment of macrophage populations, polarization, and interactions with other immune cells in mouse models. If you need a specific antibody panel or application, please clarify. Clone AFS98 is a rat monoclonal antibody targeting mouse CD115 (CSF-1R, M-CSF-R/c-Fms), a receptor pivotal for the regulation of monocyte and macrophage proliferation, differentiation, and survival, as well as osteoclast development and bone resorption. Key scientific findings from studies citing AFS98 include:
In summary, clone AFS98 is both a research tool for studying myeloid cell populations and a preclinical therapeutic candidate for TAM-targeted cancer immunotherapy, with its effects on macrophage depletion, CSF-1 pharmacodynamics, and immune microenvironment well documented in the literature. The dosing regimens of clone AFS98 (anti-mouse CSF-1R/CD115) vary considerably depending on the mouse model, experimental aim, and disease context:
Key determinants of dosing differences:
In summary, clone AFS98 is most often administered at 1.5 mg/mouse (approx. 75 mg/kg) for syngeneic tumor immunology models and at higher doses (25–50 mg/kg) three times weekly in metastatic or late-stage cancer models, always via intraperitoneal injection. If a specific disease model or strain is of interest, protocols and optimal doses may need adjustment and should be validated for each application. References & Citations1. Stanley ER., et al.
