UZ4 recognizes the minimal amino acid consensus
sequence CXKKKL present in the lectin domain of
both murine and human E-selectin.
UZ4 is a functional antibody in that it inhibits
leukocyte adhesion to both murine and human
activated endothelial cells. For in vivo application
in mice 20µg of purified Ig per injection is
recommended.

免疫原
UZ4 is a rat monoclonal IgM antibody derived by fusion of SP2/0 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a Lewis rat immunized with LPS-activated mlEND1 cells expressing E-selectin at their cell surface.
UZ4 is also suitable for immunoblotting, ELISA, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry (dilution 1:500). It is not optimal for immunohistochemistry; to analyze mouse E-selectin protein in frozen sections, please refer to the anti Eselectin monoclonal antibodies UZ5, UZ6, and UZ7.

BACKGROUND
Leukocytes adhere to the blood vessel endothelium
during extravasation in postcapillary venules of
lymph nodes. In addition, leukocyte adhesion occurs
in the capillaries and small venules at any site in the
body after onset of inflammation. This response is
immediate and involves a cascade of adhesion
receptors. At the endothelial surface members of
the selectin and immunoglobulin superfamilies
participate in this cascade. Selectins are C-type cell
surface lectins that play a role in leukocyte adhesion
to the blood vessel wall endothelium. E-selectin
(CD62E) is an endothelial cell specific selectin that
is expressed only after activation with
proinflammatory cytokines. In vitro experiments
have shown that IL-1, TNFα and bacterial wall
components like lipopolysaccharides induce the
transcription of E-selectin in a NFκB dependent
signalling cascade.
E-selectin has been associated with blood vessel
endothelium in diverse inflammatory situations.
