Description
The Sa2-8 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with mouse CD14, a cell surface anchored glycoprotein that is primarily expressed on macrophages and is secreted in certain conditions. CD14 associates with LPS and LBP to form a receptor complex, which signals specifically in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) binding. The Sa2-8 antibody exhibits a weak antagonistic activate in relation to TNF alpha production and NF-kappa B activation.
