Anti-CD11b/ITGAM Antilichaam Picoband® 31.0550 Vervoeging

ITGAM (Integrin Alpha-M), also called CD11B or Mo1 ALPHA SUBUNIT (MO1A), is one protein subunit that forms the heterodimeric integrin alpha-M beta-2 (alphaMbeta2) molecule. A major surface antigen family on human leukocytes includes complement receptor type 3 (CR3A; also called ITGAM, Mac1, or Mo1), lymphocyte function-associated (LFA) antigen type 1 (ITGAL), and p150, 95 (ITGAX) . By in situ hybridization, Corbi et al. (1988) demonstrated that the genes encoding the alpha subunits of LFA1 (ITGAL), Mac1, and p150, 95 (ITGAX), all of which are involved in leukocyte adhesion, constitute a cluster on 16p13.1-p11. Callen et al. (1991) narrowed the assignment to 16p11.2. Inflammation plays an essential role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Simon et al. (2000) presented evidence that it also has a role in vascular repair after mechanical arterial injury (i.e., percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, or PTCA) .

Integrin alpha-M/beta-2 is implicated in various adhesive interactions of monocytes, macrophages and granulocytes as well as in mediating the uptake of complement-coated particles. It is identical with CR-3, the receptor for the iC3b fragment of the third complement component. It probably recognizes the R-G-D peptide in C3b. Integrin alpha-M/beta-2 is also a receptor for fibrinogen, factor X and ICAM1. It recognizes P1 and P2 peptides of fibrinogen gamma chain.
