Anti-CD14 (Monocyte / Macrophage Marker) Monoclonal Antibody (Clone: rLPSR/2408)

Recognizes a protein of 55kDa, identified as CD14 (also known lipopolysaccharide receptor) . CD14 is expressed strongly on monocytes and macrophage and weakly on the surface of neutrophils. CD14 is anchored to cells by linkage to glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) and functions as a high affinity receptor for complexes of LPS and LPS binding protein (LBP) . Soluble CD14, also binding to LPS, acts at physiological concentration as an LPS agonist and has, at higher concentrations, an LPS antagonizing effect in cell activation.
