Application: Anti-CD36 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem Physiol Actions: CD36 is regulated by Csk homologous kinase (Chk), a tyrosine kinase, in thrombin stimulated platelets. CD36 interacts with fibrinogen-liganded integrin aIIbß3 (GP IIb/IIIa) to stabilize aggregation and activation of platelet. During platelet activation, it identifies and binds to the quaternary (polymeric) structure of collagen.
