The Rat CD44H Monoclonal Antibody (OX-49, AGEL2428) is a specialized tool for researchers delving into the realm of cellular adhesion and migration. This antibody, generated against CD44H in rats, exhibits exceptional specificity and sensitivity towards rat samples, particularly in flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry applications. By specifically recognizing and binding to the CD44H protein, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis in diverse experimental systems, offering a valuable asset for investigations in fields such as cell biology and immunology.CD44H, a variant of the CD44 cell surface glycoprotein, plays a key role in cell-cell interactions and cell signaling processes, particularly in relation to cell adhesion and migration.
Its involvement in these fundamental cellular activities makes it a crucial target for research aimed at understanding mechanisms underlying development, tissue regeneration, and disease progression. By elucidating the functions of CD44H, researchers can gain insights into various physiological and pathological processes, paving the way for innovative therapeutic approaches targeting conditions related to cellular adhesion dysregulation.

Background:
CD44 is an 80-95 kD cell surface glycoprotein. It is expressed on all leukocytes, endothelial cells, hepatocytes, and mesenchymal cells. It is up-regulated when T cells and B cells are activated. It was reported that CD44 is a valuable marker for memory T cells. CD44 is an adhesion molecule involved in leukocyte adhesion and homing to lymphoid organs. The OX-49 antibody reacts with CD44H (known as CD44s) expressed on most leukocytes, except for a subset of B lymphocytes. The epitope recognized by OX-49 antibody has been mapped to a region on both the standard, CD44s, and the splice variant, CD44v, isoforms of CD44. However it was reported that OX-49 antibody cannot detect the CD44V isoform, possibly due to conformational changes in the epitope.
