Description: This 7-239 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD169, also known as Siglec-1 and Sialoadhesin. This type I transmembrane protein is a member of the sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin (Siglec) family. Expressed on macrophages and dendritic cells in peripheral blood, lymph nodes, and spleen in humans, CD169 binds glycoproteins and glycolipids containing N-acetylneuraminyl alpha 2-3-galactose. CD169 expression can also be induced on CD14+ monocytes by interferon-alpha and interferon-gamma to mediate HIV-1 infection. Finally, CD169 has also been shown to be involved in antigen presentation to invariant NK T cells.
This monoclonal antibody has been reported to inhibit erythrocyte binding to CD169-expressing cells.
