CD31 Polyclonal Antibody / PECAM-1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody recognizes platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1, a transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by the PECAM1 gene. CD31 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is highly associated with vascular endothelial cells. It is also expressed by platelets and several leukocyte populations, making CD31 an important molecule in vascular biology, cell adhesion and immune cell trafficking.
PECAM-1 contains six extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains, a single transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic domain containing regulatory tyrosine residues. Homophilic interactions between CD31 molecules contribute to endothelial cell-cell adhesion, particularly at intercellular junctions. The cytoplasmic region participates in signaling through phosphorylation-dependent interactions with intracellular proteins, allowing PECAM-1 to influence cellular responses to mechanical and inflammatory signals.
CD31 has an important role in maintaining endothelial barrier integrity and regulating leukocyte passage across the vascular endothelium. During inflammation, leukocytes cross endothelial junctions through a coordinated process involving multiple adhesion molecules, with PECAM-1 contributing to transendothelial migration. A PECAM-1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody can therefore support research into endothelial biology, vascular inflammation and immune cell trafficking.
CD31 is also widely used as a marker of vascular endothelial cells and is frequently investigated in studies of angiogenesis and tumor vascularization. Assessment of PECAM-1 expression can aid research into blood vessel distribution, endothelial differentiation and changes in vascular architecture associated with normal tissue biology and disease. Its expression on several hematopoietic populations additionally makes PECAM-1 relevant to platelet and leukocyte biology.
NSJ Bioreagents offers this affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal reagent for research into CD31 expression and PECAM-1 biology. The CD31 Polyclonal Antibody terminology emphasizes the widely recognized CD designation and antibody format, while PECAM-1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody incorporates the alternative protein name and host species.
A CD31 Polyclonal Antibody provides a reagent for investigating endothelial cells, vascular biology and angiogenesis, while a PECAM-1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody supports research into cell adhesion, vascular integrity and leukocyte trafficking.
For a Protein Microarray Validated monoclonal antibody with CD31 as the primary designation, see our CD31 Antibody PECAM1/3527 / PECAM-1 Monoclonal Antibody.
Titration of the CD31 Polyclonal Antibody / PECAM-1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
An amino acid sequence from the C-terminus of human CD31 (RKAVPDAVESRYSRTE) was used as the immunogen for this CD31 Polyclonal Antibody.
After reconstitution, the CD31 Polyclonal Antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
