The Mouse CD103 Monoclonal Antibody (AF488 Conjugated) is a powerful tool for researchers studying immune cell interactions and tissue specificity. This antibody specifically targets CD103, a cell surface marker expressed on a subset of dendritic cells and intraepithelial lymphocytes. The AF488 conjugation allows for easy visualization and detection of CD103 in immunofluorescence and flow cytometry applications.CD103 is involved in regulating immune responses and promoting tissue-resident memory in various contexts, including gut mucosa and tumor microenvironments. By specifically binding to CD103, this monoclonal antibody enables researchers to investigate the role of this molecule in immune surveillance, tolerance, and anti-tumor immunity.
Its compatibility with mouse samples ensures accurate and reliable results in experimental settings focused on immune cell migration, gut immunity, and tumor immunology.Whether exploring immune cell dynamics in the gut epithelium or investigating the impact of CD103 on anti-tumor immunity, this AF488-conjugated monoclonal antibody offers a valuable tool for advancing research in immunology, cancer biology, and tissue-specific immune responses. Trust in its specificity and performance to shed light on the intricate roles of CD103 in immune regulation and disease pathogenesis.

Background:
CD103 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein known as αE integrin or Integrin αIEL chain. It belongs to the integrin family and is primarily found on intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL). CD103 is also expressed on a subpopulation of lamina propria T cells, epithelial dendritic cells, lamina propria-derived dendritic cells, and a small subset of peripheral lymphocytes. T regulatory cells express high level of CD103. The CD103 expression on lymphocytes can be induced upon activation and TGF-β stimulation. In association with integrin β7, CD103 is expressed as αE/β7 heterodimer. Mature CD103 protein can be cleaved into 2 chains, a 150 kD (C-terminal) chain and a 25 kD (N-terminal) chain, which remain linked by disulfide bonds. CD103 binds to E-cadherin and mediates homing of lymphocytes to the intestinal epithelium.
