Product Specifications

Immunogen

This antibody was raised by immunizing Balb/c mice against activated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC).

Specificity

B-K9 antibody recognizes VCAM-1/CD106 (VCAM1). VCAM-1/CD106 is a member of the Ig superfamily. It is a cell surface sialoglycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium. This type I membrane protein mediates leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion and signal transduction, and may play a role in the development of artherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: VCAM-1/CD106 Antibody (B-K9 (C106-K9)) - Chimeric [NBP3-12081] - Immunofluorescence analysis of paraformaldehyde fixed human peripheral blood leukocytes on Shi-fix(TM) coverslips stained with the chimeric rabbit IgG version of B-K9 (C106-K9) (NBP3-12081) at 10 ug/ml for 1h followed by Alexa Fluor(R) 488 secondary antibody (2 ug/ml), showing membrane staining. The nuclear stain is DAPI (blue). Panels show from left-right, top-bottom NBP3-12081, DAPI, merged channels and an isotype control. The isotype control was an unknown specificity antibody followed by staining with Alexa Fluor(R) 488 secondary antibody.

Background: VCAM-1/CD106

CD106 is a 110 kD glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked transmembrane protein, also known as VCAM-1 and INCAM-110. It is constitutively expressed on bone marrow stromal cells, myeloid progenitors, splenic dendritic cells, activated endothelial cells, as well as some lymphocytes. CD106 expression can be upregulated on endothelial cells by inflammatory cytokines. CD106 is involved in adhesion and acts as a counter-receptor for VLA-4 ( alpha4/ beta1 integrin) and LPAM-1 ( alpha4/ beta7 integrin). The 429 antibody has been reported to partially block VCAM-1-mediated binding.
