الوصف: | CD38 is a multifunctional cell surface receptor expressed on multiple cell lineages of hematopoietic origin with high levels of expression on human plasma cells. Previously, we isolated the monoclonal variable lymphocyte receptor B (VLRB) MM3 antibody from the evolutionarily distant sea lamprey, which recognized the CD38 ectoenzyme exclusively on human plasma cells in a manner that correlated with CD38 enzymatic activity. The plasma cell-specific binding of VLRB MM3 contrasts with the broad pattern of expression of CD38-determined conventional antibodies specific for this antigen. In an effort to facilitate the application of this unique reagent in combination with conventional antibody panels, we explored a strategy to generate VLRB MM3 tetramers. The resulting reagent maintained the threshold-based recognition of CD38. Increased sensitivity achieved with VLRB MM3 tetramers also showed preferential recognition of germinal center centroblasts over centrocytes. VLRB MM3 tetramers thus provided a unique and versatile single-step staining reagent for the detection of human CD38 that is readily incorporated into multi-color flow cytometry panels. |
