This antibody recognises the bovine homologue of human CD28, a co-stimulatory cell surface molecule expressed by T cell subsets. CD28 is the receptor for CD80 (B7.1) and CD86 (B7.2). CD28 is involved in increased production of IL-4 and IL-10 in T cells. Mouse anti Bovine CD28, clone CC219 is able to stimulate bovine T cells in combination with anti-bovine CD3. For functional assays it is recommended to use the low endotoxin and preservative free format of this antibody, MCA5779EL. Mouse anti Bovine CD28, clone CC219 has previously been published under the alternative clone designation F848EC4.
