| CatalogCode: | NB100-63334 |
| ProductName: | CD106 Antibody |
| Product Description: | Rat Monoclonal anti-CD106 (MVCAM A (429)), conjugated to FITC |
| Clone: | MVCAM A (429) |
| Clonality: | Monoclonal |
| Immunogen: | Stromal cell line PA6 |
| Specificity: | NB100-63334 recognises murine vascular adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), a cell surface glycoprotein that is also known as CD106. CD106 is expressed predominantly on endothelial cells and expression is up-regulated during inflammation. The ligand for CD106 is the alpha 4 subunit (CD49d) of the integrin VLA-4 (CD49d/CD29).Clone MVCAM.A(429) is reported to partially block VCAM-1 mediated functions (1). |
| CrossReactivity: | Mouse. Not yet tested in other species. |
| Packaging: | 0.5 mg protein G purified Rat ascites. |
| Uses: | This antibody is useful for flow cytometry / FACS analysis |
| Localization: | Plasma membrane, Type I membrane protein. |
| Background: | VCAM1 is important in cell-cell recognition. Appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Interacts with the integrins alpha4 beta1 (beta 1 integrin VLA4) and alpha4 beta7 on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction. The VCAM1/VLA4 interaction may play a pathophysiologic role both in immune responses and in leukocyte emigration to sites of inflammation. VCAM1 is also expressed by several non endothelial cell types including some macrophages, follicular dendritic cells and bone marrow, stromal cells. |
