Anti-Macrophage Scavenger Receptor Type I (MSR1, CD204, Macrophage Acetylated LDL Receptor I and II,

Macrophage scavenger receptors (MSR) are membrane glycoproteins that mediate the recognition and uptake of a variety of macromolecules, including modified lipoproteins, advanced glycation end (AGEs) products and amyloid b-protein (Abeta). While the normal role of MSR is associated with cell adhesion and host defense mechanisms, it also has been implicated in the development of atherosclerosis and Abeta deposition in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Cellular Localization: Type II membrane , Positive Control: Mouse liver lysate, Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
