MOUSE ANTI HUMAN CD14

Mouse anti human CD14 antibody, clone TÜK4 recognizes the human CD14 cell surface antigen. CD14 is a ~55 kDa glycoprotein that contains multiple leucine-rich repeats. It is anchored to the cell membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linkage (Simmons et al. 1989), a soluble form of CD14 also exists (Bazil et al. 1986).CD14 is strongly expressed on the surface of monocytes and macrophages but has also been shown to be expressed on the surface of non-myeloid cells (Jersmann 2005). CD14 functions as a pattern recognition receptor (Pugin et al. 1994, Dziarski et al. 1998) in innate immunity for a variety of ligands, in particular for the LPS (endotoxin) of Gram-negative bacteria.Mouse anti human CD14 antibody, clone TÜK4 has been shown to block SDF-induced chemotaxis of U937 cells in a dose –dependent manner (Yang et al. 2003). Use of the anti-human CD14 antibody, Low Endotoxin format is recommended for this purpose.
