Note: | This product contains thimerosal: a POISONOUS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE which should be handled by trained staff only. |
Specificity: | The monoclonal antibody is directed against the CD49e-antigen, molecular weights: 17, 130 kD, (GP Ic or VLA-5 alpha-chain), which can form distinct complexes with either the CD29-antigen (GP IIa or VLA beta-chain), resulting in the VLA-5 (alpha-5, beta-1) complex which is expressed on human platelets. Platelet VLA-5 functions as a fibronectin receptor and platelet adhesion to fibronectin is inhibited by this antibody. The monoclonal antibody reacts with platelets and monocytes. It reacts weakly with T-cells and granulocytes and with various cell types of non-hemopoietic origin. |
