Overview
Anti-Human CXCR1 (extracellular) Antibody is an antibody targeting C-X-C chemokine receptor type 1, Interleukin-8 receptor A, IL-8R A, IL8RA, IL-8 receptor type 1, CD181 Polyclonal raised in Rabbit (Unconjugated). This antibody is commonly used in IFC, LCI, WB to detect, localize, or compare expression of the target across samples.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: C-X-C chemokine receptor type 1, Interleukin-8 receptor A, IL-8R A, IL8RA, IL-8 receptor type 1, CD181 (also reported as C-X-C chemokine receptor type 1, Interleukin-8 receptor A, IL-8R A, IL8RA, IL-8 receptor type 1, CD181).
- Immunogen/epitope region: Extracellular, N-terminus.
- Homology note: Specific to human CXCR1 (informative for cross-species interpretation).
- Species reactivity (as provided): Human.
- Lot quality control (as provided): Western blot analysis.
- Peptide confirmation: Confirmed by amino acid analysis and mass spectrometry.
- Blocking peptide: Available for antigen preadsorption control where appropriate.
- Conjugate/format: Unconjugated (may affect detection channel and background).
These attributes help researchers interpret whether signal reflects the intended target in a given assay and sample context.
Biological background
Chemokine receptors belong to the seven transmembrane domain G-protein coupled receptor superfamily and are differentially expressed in diverse cell types. In leukocytes, chemokines coordinate development, differentiation, anatomic distribution, trafficking, and effector functions and thereby regulate innate and adaptive immune responses.To date, 18 chemokine receptors are known and designated as CXCR1-5, CCR1-11, XCR1, and CX3CR1 based on their specific chemokine preferences.The CXC chemokine receptors specifically bind and respond to cytokines of the CXC chemokine family. CXCR1 and CXCR2 were the first chemokine receptor subtypes to be defined.
Research relevance and current trends
- Profiling immune-marker expression across cell subsets with single-cell or flow-based readouts.
- Connecting receptor/ligand levels to activation state and cytokine programs.
- Applying genetic perturbation or orthogonal assays to support specificity and interpretation.
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): compare target abundance/size across lysates and conditions; consider isoforms/PTMs.
- Immunofluorescence/ICC: assess subcellular localization and co-localization with markers in cells or sections.
- Flow cytometry (direct/indirect): quantify target-positive populations and shifts in expression across subsets.
- Live cell imaging (LCI): support extracellular-epitope detection on non-permeabilized cells when appropriate.
Interpretation typically benefits from comparing matched sample sets (e.g., treated vs control, WT vs KO/KD) and using orthogonal readouts where feasible.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Isoforms and post-translational modifications can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility across samples.
- Cross-species signal may depend on epitope conservation; consult the provided homology note when selecting models.
- Permeabilization, fixation, and antigen retrieval can change accessibility of intracellular vs extracellular epitopes.
- Conceptual control: antigen preadsorption (blocking peptide) can help assess signal dependence on the immunogen region.
- Provided control suggestions: Negative control: BLP-CR011.
- Application notes: see product-specific dilution/usage notes and control concepts provided in the dataset.
