A mouse monoclonal antibody (HC1/1) specific for a differentiation marker of human monocytes and granulocytes has been generated by using as immunogen the monocytic cell line U937 differentiated with phorbol esters. This differentiation antigen has been characterized as the p150/95 member of the CD11 family of glycoproteins by cellular distribution studies, immunoprecipitation and competition experiments with MAb 3.9 specific for the CD11c antigen. Immuno-alkaline phosphatase staining of normal tissue sections with the HC1/1 MAb demonstrated that the CD11c antigen is a useful macrophage marker. Furthermore, the MAb HC1/1 stains specifically populations of macrophages on skin and lymph node sections from different pathologies such as Sarcoidosis, Granuloma annulare, Lepromatous leprosy and Toxoplasmosis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007114 Immunization Deliberate stimulation of the host's immune response. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of ANTIGENS or IMMUNOLOGIC ADJUVANTS. PASSIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of IMMUNE SERA or LYMPHOCYTES or their extracts (e.g., transfer factor, immune RNA) or transplantation of immunocompetent cell producing tissue (thymus or bone marrow).

D007918 Leprosy A chronic granulomatous infection caused by MYCOBACTERIUM LEPRAE. The granulomatous lesions are manifested in the skin, the mucous membranes, and the peripheral nerves. Two polar or principal types are lepromatous and tuberculoid. Hansen's Disease,Hansen Disease
D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.
