Description

CD204, also known as scavenger receptor A (SR-A) and the macrophage scavenger receptor (MSR), is 220 kDa, trimeric type II transmembrane protein, with one scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain (SRCR). It is a phagocytic pattern-recognition receptor (PRR) expressed on macrophages and dendritic cells. CD204 is a receptor mediating recognition and internalization of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) by macrophages and plays a critical role in atherogenesis. CD204 also recognizes apoptotic cells, modified lipid proteins, and exogenous pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), which results in the induction of innate immune and inflammatory responses. CD204 can act as a co-receptor for Toll-like receptors, such as TLR3, TLR4, or TLR9, to facilitate the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. CD204 has been implicated in several pathological processes such as Alzheimer’s disease, sepsis, ischemic injury, and coronary artery disease.

Formulation

Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.25 µg per million cells in 100 µL volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
