Additional info: LOX1, a 31 kDa type II transmembrane protein, is a C-type lectin, functioning as a scavenger receptor for e.g. oxidized low density lipoprotein, apoptotic heat shock proteins, or CRP. It is expressed by macrophages, fibroblasts, platelets, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells, and its defects can lead to atherosclerosis. Its expression is enhanced under inflammatory conditions. Multiple splicing variants have been identified.SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody MPO421-8B2 recognizes human myeloperoxidase, a heme protein present in intracellular granules of myeloblasts, neutrophils and monocytes. It is a marker of acute myelogenous leukemias and acute lymphoblastic leukemias.Application detailsFlow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 1-5 µg/ml
