Hybridoma that Secretes Antibody to Mouse CD1

CD1d is a member of the CD1 family of antigen presenting molecules that display lipid antigens to T-cells. CD1d-restricted T-cells have been shown to have a role in antimicrobial responses, antitumor immunity, and the balance between tolerance and autoimmunity.

The innovation allows researchers to study and analyze CD1d expression and function. The monoclonal antibody is compatible with various laboratory techniques, including immunoprecipitation, flow cytometry, and immunohistochemistry.
