ITGAL antibody

Catalog No. ABIN2688904

Product Details anti-ITGAL Antibody

Target: ITGAL (Integrin alpha-L (ITGAL))

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This ITGAL antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunohistochemistry (Frozen Sections) (IHC (fro)), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Brand: BD Pharmingen™

Characteristics: The M17/4 antibody reacts with the 180 kDa αL chain of LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18, αLβ2 integrin), a heterodimeric surface glycoprotein expressed on almost all leukocytes. CD8a+CD8b- intestinal intraepithelial T lymphocytes, which are believed to be thymus independent, do not express CD11a. LFA-1 mediates a variety of heterotypic and homotypic intercellular adhesions through interaction with ICAM-1 (CD54) and ICAM-2 (CD102), including participation in the immunological synapses between CD8+ T lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells. mAb M17/4 blocks a variety of LFA-1-mediated cells interactions in vitro, and costimulatory effects have also been described. In vivo treatment with M17/4 mAb reduces the severity of graft-versus-host reactions, prolongs allograft survival, inhibits the development of autoimmunity, and blocks substance P-induced leukocyte migration. The M17/4 and 2D7 (Cat. No. 553120) antibodies are reported to recognize different epitopes of the CD11a molecule. Immunohistochemical staining of CD11a positive cells. Frozen sections of mouse spleen were reacted with the anti-CD11a antibody. Leukocytes can be identified by the brown labeling of their cell membranes. Amplification 20X.
