Alternative Names
CD8a; T-lymphocyte differentiation antigen T8/Leu-2; T-cell surface glycoprotein CD8 alpha chain
UniProt
P01732
Immunogen
The original antibody was raised by immunizing a mouse with human CD8.
Application Notes
The original antibody was used for flow cytometry on blood lymphocytes (Arab et al., 2015; PMID:25926938, Langermans et al., 2000; PMID:11168830), and on PMBCs form chimpanzees, rhesus macaques and squirrel monkeys (Ozwara et al., 1997; PMID:9379483). The antibody was used for immunofluorescence on human PBMCs (Langermans et al., 2000; PMID:11168830). This antibody was used for immunohistochemistry on paraffin embedded tumor sections (Lin et al., 2020; PMID:31690181).
