| Immunogen | Rat thymocyte membrane glycoproteins. Spleen cells from immunised BALB/c mice were fused with cells of the NS1 mouse myeloma cell line. |
| Specificity | This antibody Mouse anti Rat CD8α, clone MRC OX-8, recognizes the rat CD8 alpha cell surface antigen, expressed by a subset of T lymphocytes, most thymocytes and the majority of NK cells. Clone MRC OX-8 is suitable for use in in vitro blocking studies (Popov et al.2001). Mouse anti Rat CD8α, clone MRC OX-8 has been described reacting with paraffin-embedded material following PLP Fixation (periodate-lysine paraformaldehyde) (Whiteland et al. 1995). Mouse anti Rat CD8α, clone MRC OX-8 is routinely tested in flow cytometry on rat splenocytes. |

| Background | The CD8 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein found on most cytotoxic T lymphocytes that mediates efficient cell to cell interactions within the immune system. The CD8 antigen, acting as a coreceptor, and the T cell receptor on the T lymphocyte recognize antigen displayed by an antigen presenting cell (APC) in the context of class I MHC molecules. The functional coreceptor is either a homodimer composed of two alpha chains, or a heterodimer composed of one alpha and one beta chain. Both alpha and beta chains share significant homology to immunoglobulin variable light chains. |
