Paraformaldehyde-fixed (4%), 500 μm-thick mouse spleen section was processed according to the Ce3DTM Tissue Clearing Kit protocol (cat. no. 427701). The section was costained with anti-mouse/human CD45R/B220 Antibody (clone RA3-6B2) Alexa Fluor® 488 at 5 µg/mL (green), anti-mouse CD68 Antibody (clone FA-11) Alexa Fluor® 594 at 5 µg/mL (blue), and anti-mouse CD3ε Antibody (clone 145-2C11) Alexa Fluor® 647 at 5 µg/mL (magenta). The section was then optically cleared and mounted in a sample chamber. The image was captured with a 10X objective using Zeiss 780 confocal microscope and processed by Imaris image analysis software.

    C57BL/6 mouse splenocytes were stained with CD3e (clone 145-2C11) Alexa Fluor® 647 (filled histogram) or Armenian hamster IgG Alexa Fluor® 647 isotype control (open histogram).
  • 145-2C11_Alx647_2_030206
    C57BL/6 mouse frozen spleen section was fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) for 10 minutes at room temperature and blocked with 5% FBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then the section was stained with 10 µg/ml of CD3ε (clone 145-2c11) Alexa Fluor® 647 (red), and B220 (clone RA3-6B2) Alexa Fluor® 488 (green) overnight at 4°C. The image was captured by 10X objective.

Description

CD3ε is a 20 kD transmembrane protein, also known as CD3 or T3. It is a member of the Ig superfamily and primarily expressed on T cells, NK-T cells, and at different levels on thymocytes during T cell differentiation. CD3ε forms a TCR complex by associating with the CD3δ, γ and ζ chains, as well as the TCR α/β or γ/δ chains. CD3 plays a critical role in TCR signal transduction, T cell activation, and antigen recognition by binding the peptide/MHC antigen complex.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.25 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. For immunohistochemistry on frozen tissue sections, a concentration range of 5.0 - 10.0 µg/ml is suggested. For 3D immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed tissues, a concentration of 5.0 µg/mL is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

* Alexa Fluor® 647 has a maximum emission of 668 nm when it is excited at 633nm / 635nm.

Application Notes

Clone 145-2C11 is useful for in vitro blocking of target-specific CTL-mediated cell lysis1, as well as T cell activation assays, inducing proliferation and cytokine production1,2,7,12,16. It also induces apoptosis in immature thymocytes32,  and in vivo T cell depletion8-10. Additional reported applications (for relevant formats of this clone) include: immunoprecipitation1, immunohistochemical staining14,15 of acetone-fixed frozen sections and zinc-fixed paraffin-embedded sections, Western blotting4, complement-mediated cytotoxicity6, in vitro and in vivo stimulation of T cells1,2,7,12,16, immunofluorescent staining5, and in vivo T cell depletion8-10. The 145-2C11 antibody has been reported to block the binding of 17A2 antibody to CD3 epsilon-specific T cells11. Clone 145-2C11 is not recommended for formalin-fixed paraffin embedded sections. The LEAF™ purified antibody (Endotoxin <0.1 EU/µg, Azide-Free, 0.2 µm filtered) is recommended for functional assays (Cat. No. 100314). For in vivo studies or highly sensitive assays, we recommend Ultra-LEAF™ purified antibody (Cat. No. 100340) with a lower endotoxin limit than standard LEAF™ purified antibodies (Endotoxin <0.01 EU/µg).
