Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects SLAM family member 5 (gene CD84) in human samples and is validated for ELISA, flow cytometry, IHC and ICC/IF. The predicted molecular weight is 38.8 kDa.
CD84 (SLAMF5) is a SLAM family receptor that binds itself (homophilic interaction) and is expressed on most immune cells. It regulates lymphocyte adhesion, T cell–B cell interaction in germinal centers and activation of several leukocyte types.

Validated Applications
| IHC (frozen sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL |
|---|---|
| Immunocytochemistry / Immunofluorescence | 0.5–1 µg/mL |
| Flow cytometry (fixed cells) | 1–3 µg/1×106 cells |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): THP-1 cells, Jurkat cells.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human tonsil tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Immunogen
Recombinant human CD84 fragment (Lys22–Gly225), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places SLAM family member 5 in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Predominantly expressed in hematopoietic tissues, such as lymph node, spleen and peripheral leukocytes.
