Mouse anti Human CD11c antibody, clone Bu15 recognizes the integrin alphax subunit (ITGAX), a ~150 kDa glycoprotein also known as CD11 antigen-like family member C or Leu M5, CD11c is expressed by macrophages, monocytes, NK cells and most dendritic cells (Kohrgruber et al. 1999). CD11c is also expressed at a lower level by granulocytes.<br>CD11c forms a heterodimeric integral membrane protein with the integrin beta 2 chain to form the leukocyte specific integrin 'inactivated-C3b receptor 4'. CD11c interacts with a number of ligands including the G-P-R sequence in fibrinogen, ICAM-1 (Frick et al. 2005), iC3b (Sadhu et al. 2007) and Junctional adhesion molecule-like (Bazzoni et al. 2011). CD11c is involved in cell-cell interactions during the inflammatory process and is important for monocyte adhesion and chemotaxis. CD11c also acts as a signalling receptor for polysaccharide (Inqualls et al. 1995)<br>CD11c is expressed by hairy cell leukaemia cells (Goodman et al. 2003; Nicolaou et al. 2003).
