CD36 Monoclonal Antibody (eBioNL07 (NL07)), eFluor™ 660, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

Description: The monoclonal antibody eBioNL07 recognizes human CD36, which is a member of the class B scavenger receptor family. CD36 was originally identified as a platelet-membrane glycoprotein also called glycoprotein IV and a receptor for thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and extracellular matrix proteins. Binding to TSP-1 is in the CLESH (CD36 LIMP-II Emp sequence homology) domain of CD36. CD36 expression is broad and includes microvascular (but not large vessel) endothelium, adipocytes, skeletal muscle, dendritic cells, epithelia of the retina, breast, and intestine, smooth muscle cells, and hematopoietic cells, including erythroid precursors, platelets, monocytes/macrophages, DCs and megakaryocytes. Expression on platelets is absent on Nak-a negative donors. Unlike other scavenger receptor, CD36 binds LDL that has been exposed to "minimally" oxidizing conditions. CD36 is also a fatty acid translocase (FAT) necessary for the transport of long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) and therefore may play a role in atherosclerosis. Applications Reported: This eBioNL07 (NL07) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This eBioNL07 (NL07) antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human perioheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.125 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL.
