Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	This antibody was raised by immunising Armenian hamsters with B12 cells, a PD-1 cDNA transfectant of BHK cells.
Specificity	This antibody is specific for murine PD-1. The specificity of this antibody has been confirmed in ELISA analysis, using PD-1 extracellular domain fusion proteins (Agata et al, 1996). Additionally, in flow cytometric analysis, this antibody reacts with PD-1 cDNA-transfected BHK and CHO cells, but not with parental BHK and CHO cells, as well as reacting with lymphocytes from PD-1 cDNA transgenic mice (Agata et al, 1996). This antibody has been used to immunoprecipitate PD-1 from lysates of PD-1 cDNA-transfected BHK and CHO cells (Agata et al, 1996), in flow cytometric quantification of CD4+PD-1+ T cells in murine spleens (Kasagi et al, 2010), and in immunohistochemical analysis of acetone-fixed murine spinal cord and brain tissue sections (Salama et al, 2003). This antibody displays diverse effects in different mouse models of disease. When administered to NZB/W F1 mice, a model of lupus-like nephritis, this antibody has been shown to delay the onset of nephritis and prolong survival, through the depletion of PD-1+ T cells (Kasagi et al, 2010). Antibody-treated NZB/W F1 mice displayed decreased numbers of PD-1+ T cells, and this antibody was confirmed to trigger complement-dependent cytotoxicity in PD-1+ T cells in vitro (Kasagi et al, 2010). Conversely, administration to experimental allergic encephalitis (EAE) and NOD diabetes mice exacerbated disease, through its neutralising activity (Salama et al, 2003; Ansari et al, 2003); this antibody has been shown in vitro to inhibit binding of both PD-L1-Ig and PD-L2-Ig to PD-1 transfected BHK cells (Ansari et al, 2003).
