Rat Anti-Mouse CD317 Antibody (927)

BST2 protein, also known as bone marrow stromal antigen 2 or CD317, is a type of protein that plays significant roles in various biological processes. It is a type II transmembrane protein mainly expressed on the surface of cells such as fibroblasts, endothelial and cells some immune cells. One of its key functions is in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation. For example, in the bone marrow microenvironment, BST2 protein can influence the growth and development of hematopoietic cells by interacting with other molecules. Moreover, it is involved in the immune response. It can affect the activation and function of immune cells like T cells and B cells, thus participating in the regulation of the body's immune defense mechanism. Additionally, BST2 protein has been found to be associated with some diseases. Abnormal expression of BST2 protein may be related to the occurrence and development of certain cancers and autoimmune diseases. Therefore, research on BST2 protein is of great importance for understanding the mechanisms of cell biology and disease pathogenesis.
