CD44 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6941197

Product Details anti-CD44 Antibody

Target: CD44

Reactivity: Human, Baboon, Green Monkey

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD44 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Functional Studies (Func), Staining Methods (StM)

Specificity: Recognizes a cell surface glycoprotein of 80-95 kDa (CD44) on lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes (Leucocyte Typing Workshop V). Its epitope is resistant to digestion by trypsin and chymotrypsin. This MAb selectively interferes with lymphocyte binding to lymph node, mucosal and synovial endothelium. The CD44 family of glycoproteins exists in a number of variant isoforms, the most common being the standard 85-95 kDa or hematopoietic variant (CD44s). Higher molecular weight isoforms are described in epithelial cells (CD44v), which are believed to function in intercellular adhesion and stromal binding. CD44 immunostaining is commonly used for the discrimination of urothelial transitional cell carcinoma in-situ from non-neoplastic changes in the urothelium.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Stimulated human leukocytes
