Product Specific Information
Flow Cytometry PBMC: Add 10 µL of MAB/10^6 PBMC in 100 µL PBS. Mix gently and incubate for 15 minutes at 2 to 8C. Wash twice with PBS and analyze or fix with 0.5% v/v of paraformaldehyde in PBS and analyze.
Flow Cytometry Whole Blood: Add10 µL of MAB/100 µL of whole blood. Mix gently and incubate for 15 minutes at room temperature 20C. Lyse the whole blood. Wash once with PBS and analyze or fix with 0.5% v/v of paraformaldehyde in PBS and analyze. See instrument manufacturer instructions for Lysed Whole Blood and Immunofluorescence analysis with a flow cytometer or microscope.
Target Information
CD56, also known as neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), is a highly glycosylated transmembrane glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin family. It plays a crucial role in cell adhesion, migration, axonal growth, pathfinding, and synaptic plasticity. CD56 is ubiquitously expressed in the nervous system in isoforms ranging from 120-180 kDa and is involved in homotypic adhesion of neural cells. It mediates interactions by binding extracellular matrix components such as laminin and integrins, with polysialic modification reducing CD56-mediated adhesion. In the hematopoietic system, CD56 is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells and a subset of T cells known as NKT cells. It is also found on most neuroectodermal-derived cell lines, tissues, and neoplasms, including retinoblastoma, medulloblastoma, astrocytomas, and neuroblastoma. CD56 serves as a widely used neuroendocrine marker with high sensitivity for neuroendocrine tumors and ovarian granulosa cell tumors. Diseases associated with CD56 dysfunction include rabies and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasms, highlighting its importance in both neural and immune system functions.
