Description
Rat anti Mouse CD169 antibody, clone 3D6.112 recognizes mouse CD169 also known as sialoadhesin, Sheep erythrocyte receptor or Siglec-1. CD169 is a 1695 amino acid, ~180 kDa single pass, type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein containing a single Ig-like V-type domain and sixteen Ig-like C2-type domains. CD169 is a macrophage restricted receptor, preferentially binding to alpha 2,3 linked sialic acid residues (Crocker et al. 1991) and is expressed on stromal macrophages in many tissues, particularly in lymph nodes, bone marrow and on marginal metallophilic macrophages in the spleen (Morris et al. 1991).CD169 has been implicated in a number of roles including cell-cell interactions with lymphocytes (van den Berg et al. 1992) and granulocytes (Crocker et al. 1995). CD169 expressing macrophages have also been suggested to play a role in host resistance to lymphoma metastasis (Umansky et al. 1996). In pigs CD169 has also been identified as a macrophage restricted receptor for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (Delputte et al. 2007). CD169 expressing macrophages have also been implicated in the regulation of autoimmune disease progression through their interaction with regulatory T cells via CD169 (Wu et al. 2009<
