Anti-Mouse CD172a -BX013 (P84); Alexa 488-RX013 (S200-25Tests)

CD172a antibody, clone P84, recognizes CD172a, also known as single regulatory protein α (SIRPα) (signal regulatory protein alpha) or Src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase substrate-1 (SHP-1), a type I transmembrane glycoprotein with three Ig-like extracellular domains and two cytoplasmic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motifs (ITIMs)1. SIRPα is expressed predominantly in myeloid cells2 - including monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells (DCs) - and neuronal cells3. The extracellular ligand for SIRPα, CD47 (or integrin-associated protein [IAP])4, is expressed in most cell types5. In macrophages, ligation of SIRPα by CD47 inhibits macrophage phagocytosis of self cells6,7. SIRPα also negatively regulates DC-mediated T cell activation and DC maturation8-10. CD47 is also upregulated on tumor cells, inhibiting the phagocytosis of tumor cells by macrophages11. Therapeutics targeting the CD47-SIRPα interaction, including antibodies and fusion proteins, are currently under preclinical and clinical study for various malignancies as a monotherapy or in combination with other therapeutics12. PhenoCycler-Fusion (CODEX)® reporters are made up of a fluorescent dye and a short oligonucleotide DNA barcode called a PhenoCycler-Fusion (CODEX)® Tag. Fluorescent reporters enable highly specific detection of corresponding barcodes, and the use of spectrally separated dyes allow for precise signal detection in up to three distinct fluorescence channels at one time.
