Biolegend, 166304, FITC anti-mouse Integrin αVβ6 Antibody, 100μg

Integrins are heterodimeric transmembrane receptors that mediate cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. Integrin β6 associates exclusively with the αV subunit forming an αVβ6 complex that is expressed specifically on epithelial cells. Integrin αVβ6 is a receptor for multiple extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, including tenascin, fibronectin, and vitronectin. It is also a receptor for the latency-associated peptide (LAP) of TGF-β and is involved in TGF-β activation. Its expression is upregulated during wound healing and in some cancers.
