This Rat Monoclonal antibody specifically detects CD11b in FACS, IP and IHC (fro). It exhibits reactivity toward Human, Mouse, Rabbit and Non-Human Primate.
The rat monoclonal antibody M1/70 detects an extracellular epitope of CD11b (integrin alphaM subunit), a type I transmembrane protein mainly expressed on monocytes/macrophages, granulocytes and NK-cells, which associates with CD18 to form Mac-1 integrin that plays important role in cell-cell interactions.

Background
Integrin subunit alpha M,CD11b (integrin alphaM subunit) is a 165-170 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that non-covalently associates with integrin beta2 subunit (CD18), expression of the CD11b chain on the cell surface requires the presence of the CD18 antigen. CD11b/CD18 integrin (Mac-1, CR3) is highly expressed on NK cells, neutrophils, monocytes and less on macrophages. CD11b/CD18 integrin is implicated in various adhesive interactions of monocytes, macrophages and granulocytes, facilitating their diapedesis, as well as it mediates the uptake of complement coated particles, serving as a receptor for the iC3b fragment of the third complement component.,Mac-1, Integrin alpha M, ITGAM, CR3A, MO1A, MAC1A
