This goat IgG polyclonal antibody was generated against peptide sequence CQVEHSTSRNQET from the internal region of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (Trem2) and recognizes mouse Trem2.
Highlights:
Triggering receptor expressed in myeloid cells 2 (Trem2) is a pattern recognition receptor found on the plasma membrane of myeloid cells which include macrophages, granulocytes, monocytes, and dendritic cells. When activated, Trem2 induces an innate immune response that includes phagocytosis, chemotaxis, and transcriptional changes. Consequently, Trem2 may be involved in chronic inflammation. Within the brain, Trem2 is expressed by microglia and is upregulated on microglia around amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease. Mutations in the Trem2 gene are thought to increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
