anti-human CD23, Clone LT23

Description
CD23 (Fc epsilon RII), the low affinity IgE receptor, is a 45 kDa type II membrane glycoprotein expressed more or less on eosinophils, follicular dendritic cells, Langerhans cells, mature B cells (mainly upon activation), EBV­transformed lymphoblasts, monocytes, and subpopulation of platelets. A soluble form of 37 kDa and other its fragments were also described. CD23 mediates IgE­dependent cytotoxicity by eosinophils and macrophages, and downregulates IgE secretion in response to high levels of IgE, involving release of proinflammatory cytokines.

Properties
The monoclonal antibody ADG5014/L (clone LT­23) is a murine monoclonal antibody, subclass IgG1. The antibody has been purified form ascites by DEAE chromatography, Purity > 95% (by SDS-­PAGE).

The antibody is specific for the human CD23 antigen, it reacts with surface B cell antigen CD23. CD23 is the low affinity receptor for IgE.
HLDA IV; WS Code P 99.

    CD23 is known as the low-affinity IgE receptor (Fc epsilon RII). Binding of IgE to its receptors exerts cellular signaling. Platelets express both, the low-affinity IgE receptor (Fc epsilon RII/CD23), as well as the high-affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RI). By flow cytometric analysis the authors found that a low proportion of platelets co-expresses Fc epsilon RI and Fc epsilon RII/CD23. Functional studies revealed that anti-Fc epsilon RII/CD23 antibodies significantly inhibited Fc epsilon RI-mediated functions in platelets, indicating down-regulatory effects of receptor-ligand interaction of Fc epsilon RII/CD23.

    The low-affinity IgE receptor (CD23) is expressed by platelets. Thus thrombocytes  may contribute to long-lasting IgE sensitivity by serving as a storage pool for IgE. The authors provide evidence to conclude “that platelets of atopic individuals may contribute to allergic inflammation by serving as a storage pool for IgE and by their increased capacity to liberate further mediators of allergy in response to IgE stimulation.”
