F4/80 antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN784615

Product Details anti-F4/80 Antibody (FITC)

Target: F4/80 (EMR1) (Egf-Like Module Containing, Mucin-Like, Hormone Receptor-Like 1 (EMR1))

Reactivity: Mouse, Human

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This F4/80 antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: This antibody recognizes the F4/80 antigen on major subpopulations of resident tissue macrophages (Schaller et al. 2002). Antigen Distribution Isolated Cells: The antigen is expressed in vitro on over 80 % of M-CSF stimulated bone marrow derived macrophages, after a few days of culture. It is absent from granulocytes, lymphocytes and thrombocytes. Tissue Sections: The antigen is detected on tissue fixed macrophages in all organs tested so far (spleen, lymph nodes, thymus, liver, skin) except lung. It is also present on Langerhans cells in the skin and Kupffer cells in the liver. In complete Freund's adjuvant induced granulomas, the antigen is expressed by inflammatory macrophages, but is absent from epitheloid cells.Isolated Cells:Tissue Sections:

Target: F4/80 (EMR1) (Egf-Like Module Containing, Mucin-Like, Hormone Receptor-Like 1 (EMR1))

Alternative Name: Macrophage F4/80 Antigen (EMR1 Products)

Synonyms: EMR1 antibody, TM7LN3 antibody, DD7A5-7 antibody, EGF-TM7 antibody, F4/80 antibody, Gpf480 antibody, Ly71 antibody, adhesion G protein-coupled receptor E1 antibody, ADGRE1 antibody, LOC100424335 antibody, Adgre1 antibody

Background: The antigen expression increases upon maturation of macrophage precursors in bone marrow and blood as well as in ontogeny. BM8 is the only macrophage marker that is able to distinguish non-destructive from destructive inflammation processes in the pancreas and has been shown to be a unique histological marker of the progression from peri-insulitis to β-cell destruction and diabetes in a mouse diabetes model.Synonyms: Cell surface glycoprotein EMR1, EMR1 hormone receptor, Emr1, Gpf480
