特異性：This item detects an epitope within the C-terminal (CT) region of human CD5L, also known as Apoptosis Inhibitor expressed by Macrophages (AIM), and SP alpha. CD5L is a soluble 38kD glycoprotein which is specifically produced by mature macrophages, and has been shown to support their survival and enhance phagocytic function. CD5L expression is upregulated in response to LXR/RXR heterodimer activation. CD5L has been shown to mediate the survival of macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques.
