Anti-CD31 antibody was designed, produced, and validated as part of the Joy Cappel Young Investigator Award (JCYIA). CD31 (PECAM-1) is a 130 kDa platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule encoded by the PECAM1 gene found on chromosome 17 in humans. CD31 is expressed on platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and some types of T-cells, and makes up a large portion of endothelial cell intercellular junctions. CD31 plays a key role in modulation of integrin-mediated cell adhesion, leukocyte transendothelial migration, angiogenesis, apoptosis and macrophage phagocytosis. CD31 is also expressed in certain tumors, including epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, epithelioid sarcoma-like hemangioendothelioma, other vascular tumors, histiocytic malignancies, and plasmacytomas. Anti-CD31 is ideal for researchers interested in Stem Cell Research, Epigenetics, and Cell-cycle Regulation research.

Store vial at -20° C or below prior to opening. This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 µL). To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 µL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below. Store the vial at -20°C or below after dilution. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.
