Bovine Dendritic Cell Growth Cocktail

Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells of the immune system. Their main function is to process antigen material and present it on the cell surface to the T cells of the immune system. They act as messengers between the innate and the adaptive immune systems.

Dendritic cells are present in those tissues that are in contact with the external environment (e.g., skin, inner lining of the nose, lungs, stomach and intestines). Once activated, dendritic cells migrate to the lymph nodes where they interact with T cells and B cells to initiate and shape the adaptive immune response. During development Dendritic cells grow branched projections, the dendrites . CD209, also know as DC-SIGN, is exclusively expressed on dentritic cells in tissues, as well as on in vitro induced monocyte-derived-DC (MoDC).

Kingfisher Biotech now offers a Bovine Dendritic Cell Growth Cocktail - Catalog Number RPC0926B-001.

Swine Annexin V Fluorescein-Conjugated Recombinant Protein

Annexins are important in various cellular and physiological processes such as providing a membrane scaffold, which is relevant to changes in the physical shape of the cell. Annexin proteins have been shown to be involved in trafficking and organization of vesicles, exocytosis, endocytosis and also calcium ion channel formation. Annexin proteins are not exclusively intracellular protein: Annexin proteins are also found in the extracellular space and have been linked to several processes fibrinolysis, coagulation, inflammation and apoptosis. Annexin proteins are all capable of binding negatively charged phospholipids in a calcium dependent manner and contain a 70 amino acid repeat sequence called an annexin repeat.

Kingfisher Biotech’s Swine Annexin V Fluorescein-conjugated recombinant protein has been shown to be a superior product for use in flow cytometry applications.
