The Duffy antigen/chemokine receptor, also known as atypical chemokine receptor 1, serves as a critical regulator of chemokine bioavailability and plays a fascinating dual role in human biology. Beyond its function as a chemokine sink that modulates inflammatory responses, DARC is perhaps best known as the receptor exploited by Plasmodium vivax for erythrocyte invasion, making it a key target in malaria research. Its expression patterns on endothelial cells and red blood cells position it at the intersection of immunology, infectious disease, and cardiovascular biology.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 18B11, offers researchers the reproducibility essential for longitudinal studies and multi-site collaborations. Generated against a synthetic peptide derived from human DARC and produced using recombinant technology in rabbit host, this antibody delivers the sequence-defined consistency that eliminates the lot-to-lot variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived reagents. Affinity chromatography purification ensures high purity suitable for demanding applications.
Flow cytometry validation demonstrates clear detection capability, with testing in 293 cells showing distinct positive signal separation from isotype control when used at 1:50 dilution. The validation protocol employed fixed and permeabilized cells, confirming utility for intracellular epitope detection. Researchers can expect reliable performance across ELISA and flow cytometry workflows, with recommended dilutions of 1:50 to 1:200 for cytometric applications.
This antibody supports investigations spanning chemokine signaling dynamics, Plasmodium vivax host-pathogen interactions, and vascular biology studies where DARC expression influences leukocyte trafficking and inflammatory responses.
