The mouse monoclonal antibody VIM5 recognizes CD87 (urokinase plasminogen activator receptor), a 36-68 kDa single-chain GPI-anchored extracellular glycoprotein expressed on granulocytes, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and keratinocytes.
Kreuzreaktivität (Details)
Human
Aufreinigung
Purified antibody is conjugated with R-phycoerythrin (PE) under optimum conditions. Unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.
Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 10 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.
Plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor,CD87, the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (UPAR), is a GPI-anchored single chain glycoprotein of a 50-68 kDa, which is expressed on granulocytes, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and keratinocytes. The urokinase plasminogen activator bound to CD87 converts plasminogen to plasmin, and being concentrated on the leading edge of migrating cells, it plays important role in cell adhesion and chemotaxis. CD87 binds to β,1, β,2, and β,3 integrins, and can contribute to cancer cell invasion and metastasis. This antigen can also be used to study normal and abnormal granulopoiesis.,UPAR, URKR, PLAUR
