The Mouse CD103 Monoclonal Antibody (FITC Conjugated) M290 is a vital tool for researchers seeking to study CD103, a cell surface molecule with implications in immune responses and tissue resident memory T cells. This antibody, conjugated with FITC for versatile detection capabilities, is specifically designed for use in flow cytometry applications and is highly reactive with mouse samples.CD103, also known as integrin alpha E, plays a crucial role in regulating T cell activation, migration, and retention in tissues. Its expression is associated with immune surveillance, particularly in the context of mucosal immunity and anti-tumor responses. By targeting CD103, researchers can investigate the dynamics of T cell populations within tissues and explore their role in immune surveillance and response to pathogens or cancer.
With its FITC conjugation and specificity for mouse CD103, the M290 antibody enables precise detection and analysis of CD103-expressing cells in various tissues and experimental models. This makes it an invaluable tool for studies focused on understanding the role of CD103 in immune surveillance, inflammation, and anti-tumor immunity. Unlock the potential of CD103 research with the Mouse CD103 Monoclonal Antibody (FITC Conjugated) M290 for comprehensive insights into tissue-resident immune populations.

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.
