The FITC Anti-Rat CD44H Antibody (OX-49) is a potent tool for researchers studying CD44H, a key cell surface marker associated with cell adhesion and migration. This antibody, generated specifically for use in rat samples, is developed to detect and quantify CD44H expression in various tissues and cell types, facilitating investigations into cell interactions, signaling pathways, and disease mechanisms.CD44H, a variant of the CD44 glycoprotein family, plays a vital role in cell-cell interactions, lymphocyte activation, and tumor metastasis.
Its diverse functions in cell adhesion and migration make it a pivotal molecule for understanding physiological processes and pathological conditions such as cancer and inflammation. The FITC Anti-Rat CD44H Antibody provides researchers with a precise tool to visualize and study CD44H expression patterns, aiding in the development of targeted therapies and diagnostic tools.

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.
