CD154 – the superior marker for detection and enrichment of activated antigen-specific T cells
<b>CD154 – the superior marker for detection and enrichment of activated antigen-specific T cells </b>
CD154 is transiently upregulated on CD4+ T cells shortly after their activation and can therefore be used as a more reliable marker for activated antigen-specific T cells than traditionally used markers like CD25 or CD69. Its use in combination with cytokine detection enables easy access to the analysis of TH cells of a defined specificity. With MACS® Technology, pure, viable T cells can be conveniently isolated for downstream analysis.

  • CD154 – a more reliable and specific marker than CD69
  • the entire stimulated CD4+ cell population can be retrieved or analyzed
  • easy to combine with cytokine analysis
