Background CD90 is a 28-30 kD GPI-linked membrane glycoprotein and is part of the Ig superfamily. It interacts with CD45 in signal transduction. CD90 mediates adhesion of thymocytes to thymic stroma. It has been reported that CD90 binds with β2 and β3 integrins and is involved in the inhibition of hematopoietic stem cells proliferation and differentiation, as well as the regulation of cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth. It can be used as a marker for various stem cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells, and for the axonal processes of mature neurons. For use in FACS, CD90 is a popular surface marker for stem cells in combination with other markers such as CD34. There are two alleles for CD90 in mice that differ by one amino acid. The difference being that CD90.1 (Thy1.1) has an arginine and CD90.2 (Thy1.2) has a glutamine at position 108. CD90.2 is more prevalent and is expressed in most mice strains. CD90.1 is only expressed by a select few mice strains including AKR/J and PL strains. CD90.2 is a 25-35 kD GPI-anchored membrane glycoprotein. Like CD90, it is also in the Ig superfamily, interacts with CD45, and has involvement in signal transduction. The function of CD90.2 is thought to play roles in cognition, axon growth, T lymphocyte function, and apoptosis. CD90 acts as tumor suppressor for some tumors due to its action in upregulating thrombospondin, SPARC (osteonectin), and fibronectin. On the other hand, it has been suspected to aid in the spread of circulating melanoma cells. Regarding prostate cancer, CD90 has therapeutic potential for specific drug targeting due to its expression in cancer associated stroma, but not in normal stroma. Antigen Distribution CD90.2 is present on hematopoietic stem cells and neurons, all thymocytes, peripheral T cells of the Thy-1.2 bearing mice.

Clone 30-H12, an anti-mouse CD90.2 (Thy1.2) monoclonal antibody, is used in in vivo mouse studies primarily to deplete T lymphocytes and as a cell surface marker for identifying specific cell populations such as hematopoietic stem cells and axonal processes of mature neurons. Key in vivo uses include:
Additional details:
In summary, clone 30-H12's principal in vivo functions are immune cell depletion, identification and sorting of specific mouse cell populations, and modulation of T cell signaling and apoptosis. The correct storage temperature for sterile packaged clone 30-H12 (Anti-Mouse CD90.2/Thy 1.2) is 2–8°C for short-term storage (up to 1 week), and for long-term storage, aliquot and store at –20°C in a manual defrost freezer.
These recommendations are standard for purified monoclonal antibodies, including clone 30-H12. Always refer to the lot-specific datasheet included with your product, as vendor formulations or conjugates may require slightly different handling. Commonly Used Antibodies and Proteins Paired with 30-H12The 30-H12 antibody specifically recognizes mouse CD90.2 (Thy-1.2), a GPI-anchored glycoprotein expressed on thymocytes, mature T lymphocytes, hematopoietic stem cells, neurons, and some epithelial and fibroblast populations.

Key Points
In summary, 30-H12 is most commonly used with antibodies against CD3, CD4, CD8, CD25, CD45, and Fc receptor blockers in immunophenotyping, and with epithelial or neural markers in tissue studies. It is also paired with costimulatory molecules and apoptosis markers in functional assays, and included in large multiplex antibody panels for high-dimensional analysis. Clone 30-H12 is a widely used monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes the CD90.2 (Thy-1.2) alloantigen, and scientific literature has revealed several important findings regarding its applications and the biological functions of its target antigen. Antigen Recognition and SpecificityClone 30-H12 demonstrates highly specific binding to CD90.2 (Thy-1.2), which is a 28-30 kD GPI-linked membrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. The antibody shows remarkable specificity, as it does not cross-react with the Thy-1.1 allele found in select mouse strains like AKR/J and PL, nor does it react with rat Thy-1. This specificity is crucial since CD90.1 and CD90.2 differ by only a single amino acid at position 108, where CD90.1 has arginine and CD90.2 has glutamine. Cellular Distribution and Expression PatternsResearch using clone 30-H12 has mapped the extensive cellular distribution of CD90.2 across multiple tissue types and cell populations. The antibody binds to thymocytes, most peripheral T lymphocytes, some intraepithelial T lymphocytes, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, neurons, and hematopoietic stem cells, but notably not B lymphocytes in most mouse strains. Initially, CD90.2 was reported on thymic dendritic cells, but subsequent investigations revealed that the antigen was likely acquired from T-lineage cells rather than being intrinsically expressed. Signal Transduction MechanismsStudies utilizing clone 30-H12 have uncovered important signal transduction properties of CD90.2. The protein interacts with CD45 in signal transduction pathways and mediates adhesion of thymocytes to thymic stroma. Cross-linking experiments with the 30-H12 antibody have demonstrated that it can induce calcium influx into thymocytes. Furthermore, when co-cross-linked with antibodies to the CD3/TCR complex, it intensifies thymocyte signal transduction, promotes apoptosis of thymocytes, and inhibits the CD3-mediated proliferative response of mature T lymphocytes. Stem Cell Biology ApplicationsClone 30-H12 has proven valuable in stem cell research, where CD90.2 serves as a popular surface marker for various stem cell populations, including hematopoietic stem cells. In flow cytometry applications, it is frequently used in combination with other markers such as CD34 for stem cell identification and characterization. The antibody has also revealed CD90.2's role in inhibiting hematopoietic stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Immunological Research and Therapeutic ApplicationsIn immunological studies, clone 30-H12 has been employed to investigate T cell responses and vaccine efficacy. Research has used this antibody for T cell depletion studies, administering anti-Thy-1.2 treatments to examine protective immune responses in vaccination models. These studies have contributed to understanding how different T cell populations contribute to immunity against infectious diseases, particularly in the context of tuberculosis research. Functional Roles in Cell BiologyThe use of clone 30-H12 has helped elucidate CD90.2's diverse functional roles beyond immune system applications. Research has shown that CD90.2 binds with ?2 and ?3 integrins and is involved in regulating cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth. This makes it relevant not only for immunological research but also for neurobiology studies examining neuronal development and function. The extensive citation of clone 30-H12 in scientific literature reflects its reliability and utility as a research tool, contributing significantly to our understanding of CD90.2 biology across multiple biological systems and research applications.
