Description

General description

Cluster of differentiation 41 (CD41), also known as integrin subunit α 2b (ITGA2B) or GPIIb/IIIa (glycoprotein), is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 17q21.31. It is a platelet-specific, surface membrane receptor.

The antibody HIP8 reacts with alpha (α) subunit of CD41 (heavy chain; 120 kDa). CD41 is mainly expressed on platelets and megakaryocytes. The antibody HIP8 blocks platelet aggregation and completely inhibits ADP-, epinephrine-, and collagen-induced platelet activation, and partially inhibits ristocetin- and thrombin-induced platelet activation. HIP8 is useful in the morphological and physiological studies of platelets and megakaryocytes.

Application

The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells using 0.5 μg reagent / 1e6 cells in a suspension

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cluster of differentiation 41(CD41) is significantly involved in platelet adhesion and thrombus formation at the location of vascular injury. Fibrinogen and many extracellular matrix proteins bind in a groove between the αand β-subunits of the integrin receptor. Platelet aggregation, induced by the binding of fibrinogen to the ITGA2B receptor, is involved in the pathogenesis of acute thrombosis in coronary heart disease, stroke and peripheral arterial disease. CD41, expressed in haematopoietic progenitors, is associated with erythroid activity and endothelial marker expression. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CD41 might be associated with the risk of acute coronary syndrome and atherosclerosis.
