CD146 (LSEC) Antibody, anti-mouse, APC, REAfinity™

01MT00859

Clone REA1064 recognizes the mouse CD146 antigen, which is expressed on mouse endothelial cells, including liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), smooth muscle cells, and the basal membrane. LSECs are microvascular endothelial cells lining the hepatic sinusoidal wall. Their strategic positioning favors a tight interaction with lymphocytes migrating through the liver. They possess a high capacity for antigen uptake and processing. However, in contrast to professional antigen-presenting cells, e.g. dendritic cells, they express only low levels of costimulatory molecules.Additional informati
