IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded mouse cerebral cortex (T cells). Anti-CD4 antibody was used at 1/250 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Background
CD4 is a glycoprotein found on the surface of immune cells, primarily known for its role as a coreceptor on T-helper cells, a subset of T lymphocytes. CD4 is used as a marker to distinguish between different T cell subsets, particularly T-helper cells (CD4+ T cells) and T-regulatory cells (also known as Tregs, which can be CD4+CD25+). CD4 acts as a coreceptor with the T cell receptor (TCR) to recognize antigens presented on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) by MHC class II molecules. This interaction is crucial for the activation of T-helper cells. CD4+ T cells are central to the regulation of immune responses. They help activate B cells, macrophages, and other immune cells, and they produce cytokines that influence the type of immune response (e.g., TH1, TH2, Tfh, Tregs).

Immunohistochemistry
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded mouse spleen. Anti-CD4 antibody was used at 1/250 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
Immunofluorescence
IF shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded mouse spleen. Anti-CD4 antibody was used at 1/100 dilution (Green) and incubated overnight at 4°C. Goat polyclonal Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) was used as secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution. Counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IF staining protocol.
