This product recognizes the CD36 antigen, an 88kD cell surface glycoprotein expressed by platelets, monocytes/macrophages and also by some microvascular endothelium and erythroid precursors.
CD36 is the receptor for thrombospondin. When expressed by monocytes and macrophages, CD36 acts as a receptor for oxidized LDL and for apoptotic polymorphonuclear cells. This product partially inhibits collagen induced platelet aggregation and macrophage ingestion of apoptotic human neutrophils.
