This antibody was produced by immunizing a Fischer rat with human tonsil lymphocytes (10^7cells intraperitoneally in Freund's complete adjuvant) . A boost was given 2 weeks later (intravascularly in saline) .

Receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA) . Mediates cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions through its affinity for HA, and possibly also through its affinity for other ligands such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) . Adhesion with HA plays an important role in cell migration, tumor growth and progression. In cancer cells, may play an important role in invadopodia formation. Also involved in lymphocyte activation, recirculation and homing, and in hematopoiesis. Altered expression or dysfunction causes numerous pathogenic phenotypes. Great protein heterogeneity due to numerous alternative splicing and post-translational modification events. Receptor for LGALS9; the interaction enhances binding of SMAD3 to the FOXP3 promoter, leading to up-regulation of FOXP3 expression and increased induced regulatory T (iTreg) cell stability and suppressive function (By similarity) .

This antibody is specific for CD44 (gp90 epitope cluster I), which is selectively expressed on normal or transformed lymphoid cells that are able to recognize and bind to high endothelial venules (specialized vessels that mediate lymphocyte exit from the blood into lymphoid organs) . Although this antibody was raised against human CD44, it cross-reacts with murine, rat, rabbit, primate, sheep, bovine and goat CD44.
