Test Details:
CD11c is a cell surface marker that is commonly used in flow cytometry to identify and characterize dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are a type of immune cell that play a critical role in the initiation and regulation of immune responses. The CD11c test involves the use of fluorescently labeled antibodies specific to CD11c. These antibodies are added to a single-cell suspension of peripheral blood or tissue samples containing immune cells. The antibodies bind specifically to CD11c molecules expressed on the surface of DCs. After the antibody binding step, the sample is run through a flow cytometer, which is a specialized instrument that can analyze and sort individual cells based on their fluorescent properties. The flow cytometer measures the fluorescence emitted by the labeled CD11c antibodies, allowing for the identification and quantification of CD11c-positive DCs within the sample.
By performing immunophenotyping using CD11c, researchers and clinicians can gain valuable information about the presence, distribution, and activation status of DCs in different tissues and disease states. This information can be used to study immune responses, identify DC subsets, and assess the role of DCs in various immunological disorders.
