Anti-KIM-1 / TIM-1 / HAVCR1 Antibody
| Size | 0.1 mg |
| Estimated Lead Time | 1-2 weeks |
| Species | Human |
| Specificity | This product detects T cell immunoglobulin mucin-1 (TIM-1), which was first identified as the receptor used by hepatitis A for viral entry (it is also known as the hepatitis A virus cellular receptor- HAVCR). TIM-1 is a key cell surface protein that binds TIM-4, leading to T cell proliferation and T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokine production. TIM-1 has also been shown to bind and activate macrophages. Two splice variants for human TIM-1 exist; TIM-1a is predominantly expressed in the liver, whilst TIM-1b is expressed in the kidney. Expression of TIM-1 in the kidney is thought to be upregulated in damaged tissue, and is thought to assist healing. TIM-1 polymorphisms are associated with asthma. |
