Product Details
CD9 belongs to the cell surface glycoprotein tetraspanin protein family. CD9 is expressed on the surface of developing B lymphocytes, platelets, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, stimulated T lymphocytes, and neurons and glial cells of the peripheral nervous system[1]. In myoblasts, CD9 acts synergistically with CD81 and PTGFRN to inhibit muscle tube fusion during muscle regeneration. In macrophages, CD9 acts synergistically with CD81, β-1 and β-2 integrins to prevent macrophages from fusing into multinucleated giant cells[2]. CD9 also plays an important role in many cell physiological processes, including differentiation, adhesion and signal transduction, and it plays a key role in inhibiting cancer cell movement and metastasis[3].
