products description :
Mouse anti Pig CD8 beta chain, clone PPT23, recognizes the porcine homologue of the human CD8 beta chain cell surface antigen. Characterization of clone PPT23, also known under the clone designation FYP1C5, has demonstrated that on peripheral blood lymphocytes and spleen, this antibody binds to cells that are CD3 + , CD4 - , CD8 hi and as such defines this antibody as a specific marker of porcine alpha/beta T cells. Characterization of clone PPT23 has shown that in thymic tissue both CD8lo and CD8hi cells are recognized (Yang H & Parkhouse R.M. 1997). Inhibition studies have demonstrated that clone PPT23 recognizes a different epitope of on the CD8 beta chain to clone PPT22.

ncbi summary :
The CD8 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein found on most cytotoxic T lymphocytes that mediates efficient cell-cell interactions within the immune system. The CD8 antigen, acting as a coreceptor, and the T-cell receptor on the T lymphocyte recognize antigens displayed by an antigen presenting cell (APC) in the context of class I MHC molecules. The functional coreceptor is either a homodimer composed of two alpha chains, or a heterodimer composed of one alpha and one beta chain. Both alpha and beta chains share significant homology to immunoglobulin variable light chains. This gene encodes the CD8 beta chain isoforms. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct membrane associated or secreted isoforms have been described. A pseudogene, also located on chromosome 2, has been identified.
