Natural killer (NK) and T cells express a superfamily of proteins with structural features of C-type lectins. T cells bearing natural killer receptors (NKRs) such as CD94 and CD161 are present in psoriasis. CD161 mediates NK cell activation and functions as an activating receptor. CD161 is a prototypic marker of NK cells, although it is also found on a subset of CD8+ T cells. The expression of NK receptors on CD8+ T cells can be considered a marker of cytotoxic effector T cells that are expanded in vivo after antigenic activation leading to extensive proliferation. The transcription, mRNA accumulation, and surface expression of CD161, a molecule involved in triggering cytotoxicity, is specifically upregulated by IL-12.
Optimal dilution of the CD161 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A recombinant fragment (within amino acids 1-225) of human KLRB1 protein was used as the immunogen for the CD161 antibody.
Aliquot the CD161 antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
