Purified anti-CX3CR1 Antibody anti-CX3CR1 - 8E10.D9,BioLegend,824001

CX3CR1 is a G-protein-coupled seven-transmembrane chemokine receptor, also called GPR13 or V28. It is expressed on NK cells, T cell subset, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, some malignant epithelial cells, astrocytes, and microglial cells. CX3CL1 (known also as fractalkine and neurotactin) is the ligand of CX3CR1. CX3CL1 is a unique transmembrane molecule with a CX3C-motif chemokine domain and a mucin-like stalk. CX3CL1 is expressed by activated-endothelial cells, neurons, and astrocytes. The interaction of CX3CR1 and its ligand mediates cell adhesion and migration. CX3CL1 has been reported to play an important role in neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration.
