Complement C3 stands as the central component of the complement system, playing a pivotal role in both innate immunity and inflammatory responses. Upon activation, C3 undergoes proteolytic cleavage to generate biologically active fragments including C3a and C3b, which mediate diverse functions from opsonization and phagocytosis to immune cell recruitment. Dysregulation of C3 has been implicated in numerous pathological conditions, including autoimmune disorders, age-related macular degeneration, and various inflammatory diseases, making it a compelling target for immunological and disease-focused research.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 7F6, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Developed using recombinant technology with a defined human IgG1 framework, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability inherent in traditional hybridoma-derived reagents. The sequence-defined nature ensures that researchers can confidently compare results across extended studies and between laboratories.
Validated for flow cytometry applications, this antibody has demonstrated reliable performance in intracellular staining of HepG2 cells, a human hepatocellular carcinoma line known to express complement components. Flow cytometry validation employed cells fixed with formaldehyde and permeabilized with Triton X-100, with recommended working dilutions ranging from 1:50 to 1:200. The antibody is also suitable for ELISA-based detection methods, providing flexibility across different experimental platforms.
Supplied in a stabilized liquid format containing glycerol and PBS, this antibody is ready for immediate use in complement biology studies, liver disease research, and investigations into inflammatory pathways where C3 function is of interest.
