Clone Number:

As a T cell immunology lab, we assess T cell exhaustion by analyzing surface expression of PD1 since this is the first marker typically seen. T cells with expression of PD1 are truly exhausted therefore making checkpoint therapy ever so more important. We use this antibody to detect PD1 expression by flow cytometry.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Flow Cytometry

Sample

Chronic virus infected T cells

Primary Incubation

1:500 in 2% FBS/PBS solution (FACS)

Blocking Agent

FC Block 100ng/mL in FACS solution

Secondary Incubation

N/A

Tertiary Incubation

N/A

Detection

Flow Cytometer Celesta

Results Summary

We are able to determine three populations of PD1 expression on the T cells: Lo, Int, Hi. This is what is observed in the literature, so it is assuring we are able to see this as well.
