Anti-LSR Antibody Picoband®

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LSR gene. LSR has a probable role in the clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein from blood. It binds chylomicrons, LDL and VLDL in presence of free fatty acids and allows their subsequent uptake in the cells.

LA-PF4 stimulates DNA synthesis, mitosis, glycolysis, intracellular cAMP accumulation, prostaglandin E2 secretion, and synthesis of hyaluronic acid and sulfated glycosaminoglycan. It also stimulates the formation and secretion of plasminogen activator by human synovial cells. NAP-2 is a ligand for CXCR1 and CXCR2, and NAP-2, NAP-2 (73), NAP-2 (74), NAP-2 (1-66), and most potent NAP-2 (1-63) are chemoattractants and activators for neutrophils. TC-1 and TC-2 are antibacterial proteins, in vitro released from activated platelet alpha-granules. CTAP-III (1-81) is more potent than CTAP-III desensitize chemokine-induced neutrophil activation.
