Description

Human CD4 Ready-To-Use IHC Kit-background-The CD4 antigen is involved in the recognition of MHC class II molecules and is a co-receptor for HIV. CD4 is primarily expressed in a subset of T-lymphocytes, also referred to as T helper cells, but may also be expressed by other cells in the immune system, such as monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. At the tissue level, CD4 expression may be detected in thymus, lymph nodes, tonsils, and spleen, and also in specific regions of the brain, gut, and other non-lymphoid tissues. CD4 functions to initiate or augment the early phase of T-cell activation through its association with the T-cell receptor complex and protein tyrosine kinase, Lck. It may also function as an important mediator of direct neuronal damage in infectious and immune-mediated diseases of the central nervous system. Multiple alternatively spliced transcripts have been identified in this gene [RefSeq, July 2017].-synonyms-CD4 (L3T4); CD4 antigen (p55); CD4 Antigen ; CD4 molecule; CD4 Receptor; CD4+ Lymphocyte deficiency, included; CD4mut; L3T4; Leu3; Ly-4; Lymphocyte antigen CD4; MGC165891; p55; T Cell Antigen T4 ; T cell antigen T4/LEU3; T cell differentiation antigen L3T4; T cell OKT4 deficiency, included; T cell surface antigen T4/Leu 3 ; T cell surface antigen T4/Leu3; T Cell Surface Glycoprotein CD4; W3/25; W3/25 antigen; T-cell surface glycoprotein CD4 isoform 1 precursor; CD4_Human.-sample type-FFPE tissue-storage and stability -Storage and Stability: Please store components at the temperatures indicated on the individual tube labels.
