Description
CD46 Polyclonal Antibody | E-AB-40059 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Reactivity: Mouse, Rat
Host: Rabbit
Isotype: IgG
Application: IHC
Research Area: Cancer, Immunology
Background: Acts as a cofactor for complement factor I, a serine protease which protects autologous cells against complement-mediated injury by cleaving C3b and C4b deposited on host tissue. May be involved in the fusion of the spermatozoa with the oocyte during fertilization.Also acts as a costimulatory factor for T-cells which induces the differentiation of CD4+ into T-regulatory 1 cells.T-regulatory 1 cells suppress immune responses by secreting interleukin-10, and therefore are thought to prevent autoimmunity.A number of viral and bacterial pathogens seem to exploit this property and directly induce an immunosuppressive phenotype in T-cells by binding to CD46.
