WB Validation
Over-expression/cross reactivity
CD85a  (LILRB3/ILT5) antibody WB Validation: Over-expression/cross reactivity
To confirm the lack of cross-reactivity with the other CD85 family members, western blotting of the FRAS92B mAb was performed using cell extracts of HEK239T transfected with all the CD85 family members (CD85A-K). A specific band of 80kDa was only detected in the HEK-CD85A cell extracts. Anti-GAPDH was used as loading control.

Endogenous expression
CD85a  (LILRB3/ILT5) antibody WB Characterisation: Endogenous expression
The detection of CD85a endogenous expression using the FRAS92B mAb was confirmed by Western blotting using the myeloid-derived MUTZ3 cell line (widely used as a model for dendritic cells) and the myeloma-derived U266 (negative control). A specific band of 80 kDa was detected in MUTZ3 cell extract while no expression was found in U266. Anti-actin was used as loading control.

ICC / ICC-P Validation
Over-expression/cross reactivity
CD85a  (LILRB3/ILT5) antibody ICC Validation: Over-expression/cross reactivity
The FRAS92B mAb recognised human CD85A protein by ICC on cytospin preparations of transfectants. Strong membrane expression was observed in HEK293T-CD85A transfected cells, while no staining was observed in the HEK293T cells transfected with the other CD85 family members (CD85B-K). Labelling with the tag anti-V5, anti-MYC and anti-GFP confirmed the efficiency of transfection.

Endogenous expression
CD85a  (LILRB3/ILT5) antibody IHC-P Characterisation: Endogenous expression
Immunohistochemical staining of the FRAS92B mAb on paraffin-embedded human tissue. CD85A was observed in the paracortical area of the tonsil, the medulla of the thymus and in the red pulp of the spleen. Double immunoenzymatic staining show that CD85A (brown) was not expressed by LCN2-positive granulocytes (red) and CD123-positive plasmacytoid dendritic cells (red).

Double immunofluorescence of the FRAS92B mAb (red) with anti-CD68 (green) and Dapi (blue). Note the double labelling of some CD68-positive cells.
