FC The suggested concentration for this CD178 antibody, clone MFL3, for staining cells in flow cytometry is ≤ 0.25 μg per 106 cells in a volume of 100 μl. Titration of the reagent is recommended for optimal performance for each application.
Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change.

Description

Description

Specificity
Clone MFL3 recognizes an epitope on mouse FasL.
Background
FasL antibody, clone AFS98, recognizes Fas ligand (FasL), also known as CD178, Apo-1 ligand, and CD95 ligand. FasL is a 40 kDa type II integral membrane protein that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily. FasL is expressed by activated T cells and natural killer (NK cells)1-3. Binding of FasL to its receptor Fas (CD95, APO-1) induces apoptotic cell death in Fas-expressing target cells, contributing to anti-viral immunity. FasL also contributes to peripheral tolerance and the downregulation of immune responses through activation-induced autocrine and paracrine T cell death4. FasL is also found in the anterior chamber of the eye and on Sertoli cells in the testis, and is implicated in immune-privilege at these sites5,6. FasL also contributes to CD8 proliferation and neutrophil recruitment7,8. Soluble FasL (26 kDa) can be released following cleavage by metalloproteinases and block FasL-mediated signaling9. Fas/FasL-signaling is involved in the development of many human diseases, including autoimmunity and cancer10. Many human tumors over-express FasL, resulting in tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) apoptosis and immune evasion, which is associated with poor prognosis11-14.
Antigen Distribution
FasL is expressed on activated T cells, NK cells, the eye, and testis.
