Miltenyi Biotec Identification and Enumeration of Cd164+ Cells By Flow Cytometry; 100 Tests in 200 µL

Miltenyi Biotec Clone 67D2 recognizes the human CD164 antigen, a single-pass type I membrane protein, which is also known as sialomucin core protein 24, multi-glycosylated core protein 24 (MUC-24), or endolyn. CD164 is expressed by subpopulations of CD34+ cells. These include the majority of clonogenic myeloid and erythroid progenitors and the hierarchically more primitive precursors. Biochemical and functional characterization of CD164 indicate that this protein exists as a homodimeric molecule of approximately 160 kDa that participates in the adhesion of CD34+ cells to bone marrow stroma and functions as a signaling molecule, inhibiting the recruitment of primitive hematopoietic cells into cell cycle. CD164 may also play an important role in prostate cancer metastasis and the infiltration of bone marrow by cancer cells. - MLTY (Additional S&H or Hazmat Fees May Apply)
