The PE-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal anti-ITGAL antibody (Clone DF1524) (ABIN1105773) specifically detects ITGAL in FACS and IF.
The antibody is reactive with Human samples.
This antibody specifically detects CD11a positive leucocytes. CD11a antigens are expressed on lymphocytes, granulocytes, monocytes and macrophages with increased levels on memory T cells (1,2). Clone DF1524 was clustered at the Leucovyte Typing Workshop IV (5).

Background
CD11a/CD18 was first described as an accessory molecule in cytotoxic lymphocyte killing. CD11a (Integrin alpha-L) combines with CD18 (Integrin beta-2) to form the integrin LFA-1. LFA-1 mediates adhesion of lymphoid cells to the vascular endothelium in association with its ligands. The avidity of CD11a to its ligands is transiently upregulated on T cells upon activation (3). CD11a has also been shown to bind bacterial lipopolysaccarides (4).Synonyms: CD11 antigen-like family member A, Integrin alpha-L, LFA-1, LFA1, Leukocyte adhesion glycoprotein LFA-1 alpha chain, Leukocyte function-associated molecule 1 alpha chain
