Target Details
- Target: Macrophage marker
- Tissue cell line specificity: This antibody was used to detect S100A8/S100A9 in neutrophil extracts (Hogg et al., 1989) This antibody was used to detect S100A8/S100A9 in Human monocyte and neutrophil extracts (Edgeworth et al., 1991)
- Target background: Macrophages are comprised of many forms of mononuclear phagocytes found in tissues. Mononuclear phagocytes arise from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. Functions of macrophages include non-specific phagocytosis and pinocytosis, specific phagocytosis of opsonized microorganisms mediated by Fc receptors and complement receptors. They also assist with the killing of ingested microorganisms, digestion and presentation of antigens to T and B lymphocytes, and secretion of enzymes and regulatory molecules. Antibody 5/9 may be used as a macrophage cell marker. The antigen is present in osteoclasts and 5/9 may be useful for the identification of osteoclasts in tissues relevant to developmental pathobiology.
