The APC Anti-Rat CD161 Antibody (3.2.3) offered by Assay Genie is a crucial tool for researchers studying immune responses in rats. This antibody, specific to the CD161 cell surface molecule, is developed for use in flow cytometry applications, enabling the identification and analysis of CD161-expressing cells in various experimental settings.CD161, also known as NKR-P1A, is a marker associated with natural killer (NK) cells and subsets of T cells, contributing to the regulation of immune responses and surveillance against infections and tumors. The APC Anti-Rat CD161 Antibody (3.2.3) provides reliable staining of CD161 in rat samples, allowing researchers to investigate the role of CD161-expressing cells in immune function, inflammation, and disease progression.
This antibody is highly specific and optimized for flow cytometry, offering researchers a valuable tool for characterizing immune cell populations in rat models. By targeting CD161, researchers can gain insights into the functions and interactions of NK cells and T cell subsets, advancing our understanding of immune regulation and potential therapeutic strategies in cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmune disorders.

Background:
CD161 is a 30 kD type II transmembrane C-type lectin, expressed as a homodimer. Rat NKR-P1 receptors are primarily expressed on NK cells, a subset of T cells, dendritic cells, and activated monocytes. There are three different types of NKR-P in rat, namely NKR-P1a, NKR-P1b, and NKR-P1c. NKR-P1a does not contain an ITIM structure and is an activating receptor, while NKR-P1b contains an ITIM and displays inhibitory function. LLT-1 (ligand lectin like transcript 1) is the ligand, while KLR (killer cell lectin like) functions as a receptor.
