General description

Integrin alpha-5 (UniProt P11688; CD49 antigen-like family member E, CD49e, Fibronectin receptor subunit alpha, Integrin alpha-F, VLA-5) and Integrin beta-1 (UniProt P09055; CD29, Fibronectin receptor subunit beta, GpIIa, VLA-4 subunit beta) are encoded by the Itga5 (VLA5, Fnra; Gene ID 16402) and the Itgb1 (Fnrb; Gene ID 16412) gene, respectively, in murine species. The integrin family of cell adhesion receptors consists of at least 16 membrane-associated heterodimers, composed of an alpha and beta subunit that associate in a non-covalent manner. The structure and functional diversity of the integrin family are based upon the pairing abilities of the individual alpha and beta subunits. Key to these molecular interactions between the integrin receptors and their respective ligands is the recognition of the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence, known to be present in the extracellular matrix components fibronectin, vitronectin, collagen, fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor. The involvement of integrins in vascular proliferation, adhesion, and wound repair has been well documented. The adhesion receptor alphaVbeta1 is also known as VLA-5 (very late antigen-5) and the primary receptor for fibronectin. VLA-5 is reported to be involved many important physiological events, including angiogenesis, inflammation, neural crest development and cardiovascular morphogenesis.

Immunogen

SSC-VII cells.

Application

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot immunoprecipitated integrin VLA-5 (αVβ1) complex from murine cells, including SSC-VII oral cavity cancer cells, B16F1 melanoma cells, and mast cells (CFTL-15 & MC/9, BMMCs) (Fehlner-Gardiner, C.C., et al. (1996). Differentiation. 60(5):317-325).
Affects Function: A representative lot suppressed β2GPI surface expression on RAW264.7 cells and attenuated cardiolipin-β2GPI (aCL/β2GPI) complex- and gelsolin-mediated cellular p38 and FAK phosphorylation (Bohgaki, M., et al. (2011). J. Cell. Mol. Med. 15(1):141-151).
Affects Function: A representative lot, when combined with anti-Integrin β3 antibody, greatly blocked EphA8-stimulated NIH/3T3 adhesion to fibronectin surface (Gu, C., and Park, S. (2001). Mol Cell Biol. 21(14):4579-4597).
Affects Function: A representative lot, when combined with anti-Integrin α4, clone PS/2 (Cat. No. CBL1304), greatly blocked PMA-stimulated adhesion of spleen T-cells from non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice to fibronectin-coated surface (Uniyal, S., et al. (1999). J. Autoimmun. 12(3):167-176).
Affects Function: A representative lot, when administered together with anti-Integrin α4, clone PS/2 (Cat. No. CBL1304) via intraperitoneal injection, greatly reduced pancreas islet leukocyte infiltration among non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice following diabetes onset induction by cyclophosphamide injection (Uniyal, S., et al. (1999). J. Autoimmun. 12(3):167-176).
Affects Function: A representative lot blocked integrin αVβ1-mediated adhesion of murine bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) to fibronectin-coated surface upon PMA stimulation (Fehlner-Gardiner, C.C., et al. (1996). Differentiation. 60(5):317-325).
Flow Cytometry Analysis: A representative lot detected integrin VLA-5 (αVβ1) immunoreactivity on the surface of murine peritoneal macrophages and peripheral blood monocytes (Kapetanovic, R., et al. (2011). Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 300(4):C850-859).
Flow Cytometry Analysis: A representative lot detected integrin VLA-5 (αVβ1) immunoreactivity on the surface of murine embryonic fibroblasts (Gupta, S.K., and Vlahakis, N.E. (2009). J. Cell Sci. 122(Pt 12):2043-2054).
Flow Cytometry Analysis: A representative lot detected integrin VLA-5 (αVβ1) immunoreactivity on the surface of CD4+ or CD8+ T-cells from peripheral blood and spleen of non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice (Uniyal, S., et al. (1999). J. Autoimmun. 12(3):167-176).
Flow Cytometry Analysis: A representative lot detected integrin VLA-5 (αVβ1) immunoreactivity on the surface of murine bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) (Fehlner-Gardiner, C.C., et al. (1996). Differentiation. 60(5):317-325).
This Anti-Integrin α5β1 Antibody, clone BMA5 is validated for use in Flow Cytometry, Immunoprecipitation, Affects Function for the detection of Integrin α5β1.
