HLA-DQ Antibody (B-K27) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects HLA-DQ in human samples through immunoprecipitation (IP) and flow cytometry (FCM) applications. HLA-DQ is a crucial component of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules, which play a vital role in the immune response by presenting processed antigens to CD4+ T lymphocytes. Anti-HLA-DQ antibody (B-K27) is essential for studying the activation of helper T cells, which are pivotal in orchestrating the adaptive immune response. HLA-DQ is primarily located on the surface of antigen-presenting cells, such as B cells and dendritic cells, where HLA-DQ facilitates the recognition of foreign peptides. HLA-DQ′s ability to present a diverse array of peptides is critical for the immune system′s ability to respond to various pathogens. Additionally, HLA-DQ molecules are involved in the regulation of autoimmune responses, and HLA-DQ polymorphisms have been associated with susceptibility to autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis. HLA-DQ monoclonal antibody (B-K27) is an invaluable tool for researchers studying immune responses, autoimmune diseases, and the intricate mechanisms of antigen presentation.
