This antibody is specific to the integrin alpha6 chain which is expressed on epithelial and endothelial basement membrane. The VLA alpha6 chain, which consists of a single disulphide linked 120 kDa subunit and a small doublet subunit of 25/30 kDa, is non covalently associated with the VLA beta-chain (CD29) in VLA-6 or alpha6/beta1 complex or with integrin beta4 chain (alpha6/beta4).
The antigen is also expressed on platelets, monocytes, thymocytes and T lymphocytes.

The clinical treatment of large, full-thickness skin injuries with tissue-engineered autologous dermo-epidermal skin substitutes is an emerging alternative to split-thickness skin grafting. However, their production requires about one month of in vitro cell and tissue culture, which is a significant
Significant endeavor has been applied to identify functional therapeutic targets in glioblastoma (GBM) to halt the growth of this aggressive cancer. We show that the receptor tyrosine kinase EphA3 is frequently overexpressed in GBM and, in particular, in the most
