The PerCP-Cyanine5.5 Anti-Human CD9 Antibody (HI9a) offered by Assay Genie is a crucial tool for researchers studying CD9, a cell surface protein involved in various cellular processes. This antibody, meticulously developed and validated for use in flow cytometry, enables precise detection and analysis of the CD9 protein in human samples.CD9, a member of the tetraspanin family, is known to participate in cell adhesion, motility, and signaling pathways. Its expression has been linked to processes like cell fusion, migration, and immune response modulation. By targeting CD9 with the HI9a antibody, researchers can delve deeper into understanding the roles and mechanisms of this protein in different cell types and physiological conditions.
With its specificity for human CD9 and compatibility with flow cytometry techniques, the PerCP-Cyanine5.5 Anti-Human CD9 Antibody (HI9a) empowers scientists to unravel the complexities of CD9-mediated cellular functions. Ideal for studies in immunology, cell biology, and cancer research, this antibody opens up new avenues for investigating the impact of CD9 dysregulation in diseases and developing targeted therapeutic interventions.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. The amount of the reagent is suggested to be used 5 µL of antibody per test (million cells in 100 µL staining volume or per 100 µL of whole blood). Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use.

Background:
CD9 is a 24 kD type III transmembrane protein also known as tetraspanin, MRP-1 and DRAP-24. It is a member of the tetraspan family (spanning the membrane four times) found on platelets, B cell progenitors, activated lymphocytes, granulocytes, endothelial cells and epithelial cells. CD9 induces adhesion, platelet aggregation, and B cell development. CD9 has been shown to associate with CD63, CD81, CD82, and CD36 and to bind to β1 integrins.
