Scientific Data Images for CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 - Azide and BSA Free [NB100-65535]

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 - Azide and BSA Free [NB100-65535]

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 [NB100-65535] - Analysis of representative areas of synovial tissue samples taken from patients with end-stage osteoarthritis (OA) or refractory rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is shown. Expression pattern and staining intensity of RA samples represent the stronger intensity of synovial inflammation when compared with OA samples.

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 - Azide and BSA Free [NB100-65535]

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 [NB100-65535] - Analysis of activation markers in synovial membranes of osteoarthritis. Phenotypic markers that are instrumental in extracellular matrix alteration are detectable only at a low level (MMP-1, CD44v7/8) in areas that are slightly FAP-positive. FAP, fibroblast activation protein; MMP, matrix metalloproteinase.

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 - Azide and BSA Free [NB100-65535]

Immunohistochemistry: CD44 Antibody (VFF-17) - variant 7/8 [NB100-65535] - Analysis of activation markers in synovial membranes of rheumatoid arthritis. Expression of fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is accompanied by accumulation of activation markers (MMP-1 and MMP-13) and splice variants of CD44 (v3 and v7/8) that are known to correlate with the degree of inflammation and that are involved in extracellular matrix deposition.

Background: CD44

CD44 is a type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein also known as Phagocytic Glycoprotein 1 (pgp 1) and HCAM. CD44 is the receptor for hyaluronate and exists as a large number of different isoforms due to alternative RNA splicing. The major isoform expressed on lymphocytes, myeloid cells, and erythrocytes is a glycosylated type 1 transmembrane protein. Other isoforms contain glycosaminoglycans and are expressed on hematopoietic and non hematopoietic cells. CD44 is involved in adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells, stromal cells, and the extracellular matrix.
