Info
| Catalogue Number | 153233 |
| Applications | IHC |
| Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | CD44 |
| Synonyms | Cell differentiation 44; Homing cell adhesion molecule; HCAM; phagocytic glycoprotein-1; Pgp-1; Hermes antigen; lymphocyte homing receptor; ECM-III; HUTCH-1. |
| Reactivity | Human |
| Relevance | The CD44 antigen is a cell-surface glycoprotein involved in cell to cell and cell-matrix interactions, cell adhesion and migration, which it achieves through its affinity for hyaluronic acid (HA) and possibly also through its affinity for other ligands such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases. CD44 is also involved in lymphocyte activation, recirculation and homing, and in hematopoiesis. Altered expression or dysfunction causes numerous pathogenic phenotypes. |
