Integrin alpha-V (ITGAV/CD51) serves as a critical cell surface receptor that mediates cell adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins, playing fundamental roles in angiogenesis, tumor progression, and metastasis. As a component of several heterodimeric integrin complexes, including the well-characterized αVβ3 receptor, this protein influences diverse cellular processes from wound healing to stem cell maintenance, making it a valuable target across oncology, cardiovascular, and cell biology research.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 9E10, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Produced using recombinant technology with a sequence-defined approach, it eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The mouse IgG2a isotype and affinity-chromatography purification ensure reliable performance across your validated applications.
Experimental validation demonstrates robust performance in both immunofluorescence and flow cytometry applications. In immunofluorescence studies, the antibody successfully detected ITGAV in NIH/3T3 cells at 1:100 dilution, revealing clear membrane and cytoplasmic localization when counter-stained with DAPI. Flow cytometry analysis confirmed effective surface staining of MCF7 cells, with distinct positive signal separation from isotype control, supporting its utility for quantitative cell surface expression studies. These validated cell lines provide confidence when extending to your own experimental systems, with cross-species reactivity confirmed for both human and mouse samples.
Whether investigating integrin-mediated signaling pathways, characterizing tumor cell adhesion properties, or exploring stem cell biology, this antibody provides a reliable tool for researchers working across cancer biology, cardiovascular research, and infectious disease studies where integrin function intersects with pathogen entry mechanisms.
