Flow cytometric analysis of mouse primary splenocytes labeling CD8α at 1/2000 dilution (right panel) compared with a Rat IgG, monoclonal Isotype Control (left panel). Goat Anti - Rat IgG Alexa Fluor® 488 was used as the secondary antibody.
Then cells were stained with CD4 - Alexa Fluor® 647 separately. CD4 and CD8α are mutually exclusive expressed in mouse primary splenocytes. Gated on total viable cells.

Background
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 antigen 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.
