This antibody recognises the F4/80 antigen, a member of the EGF-TM7 family of proteins which shares 68 % overall amino acid identity with Human EMR1. Clone CI:A31 has been reported to modulate cytokine levels released in response to Listeria monocytogenes (Ref.5). We recommend the use of BM4008LE for this purpose.

F4/80 antigen is a 160 kD glycoprotein expressed by most murine macrophages. Expression of F4/80 is heterogeneous and is reported to vary during macrophage maturation and activation. The F4/80 antigen is expressed on a wide range of mature tissue macrophages including Kupffer cells, Langerhans, microglia, macrophages located in the gut lamina propria, peritoneal cavity, lung, thymus, bone marrow stroma and macrophages in the red pulp of the spleen. F4/80 expression has also been reported on a subpopulation of dendritic cells but is absent from macrophages located in T cell areas of the spleen and lymphnode. The ligands and biological functions of the F4/80 antigen have not yet been determined but recent studies suggest a role for F4/80 in the generation of efferent CD8+ve regulatory T cells.Synonyms: Cell surface glycoprotein EMR1, EMR1 hormone receptor, Emr1, Gpf480
