Invitrogen™ CD197 (CCR7) Monoclonal Antibody (4B12), PE, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™
Description
Description: The 4B12 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CCR7, also known as EBI-1 and CD197. CCR7 is a chemokine receptor for the chemokines CCL19 (CK?11, ELC, MIP3?, Scya19, Exodus-3) and CCL21 (CK?9, SLC, MIP2?, Scya21, Exodus-2). In recent years, the role of chemokines in directing the migration of lymphocytes has been well-characterized. One of the most important mediators of homeostatic trafficking of naive T cells to secondary lymphoid organs (SLO) is the chemokine receptor CCR7. Binding of its ligands, CCL19 and CCL21, mediates the trans endothelial migration of T cells across high endothelial venules into SLO. It has also been demonstrated that CCR7 plays a role in the localization of dendritic cells and B cells during an immune response. CCR7 is a chemokine receptor for the chemokines CCL19 (CK?11, ELC, MIP3?, Scya19, Exodus-3) and CCL21 (CK?9, SLC, MIP2?, Scya21, Exodus-2). In addition to its significant role in the chemotaxis of lymphocytes, human CCR7 has also been recognized as a marker for a distinct subset of memory T cells, the central memory (TCM) population. These cells are characterized by the expression of CCR7 and CD62L and reside within peripheral lymphoid organs. CCR7 also plays a role in thymocyte development and its deficiency leads to disturbed thymic architecture, aberrant T cell development, and limited thymocyte expansion.
