Mouse

R - phycoerythrin (R - PE) Conjugate

Mouse ICAM-2
The 3C4 (mIC2/4) monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse ICAM-2 (CD102) cell surface glycoprotein, a ligand for the leucocyte integrin CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1).1 CD102 is constitutively expressed on T cells, B cells, and at high levels on vascular endothelial cells.2 It is also expressed on a variety of leukocyte cell lines.1 The 3C4 antibody blocks the interaction between ICAM-2 and LFA-1.^1
