LPAM-1 antibody, clone DATK32, recognizes mouse lymphocyte Peyer’s patch adhesion molecule (LPAM-1), also known as integrin alpha 4 beta 7 (α4β7).

LPAM-1 is a heterodimer of the 154 kDa integrin α4 (CD49d) and 130 kDa integrin β7 chains and is a member of the Ig superfamily.

LPAM-1 is expressed on most peripheral lymphocytes, subsets of thymocytes, and bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells1,2.

LPAM-1 mediates adhesion to endothelial cells, promoting leukocyte transmigration across high endothelial venules (HEVs) during the inflammatory response.

LPAM-1 binds to several ligands, including vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1/CD106), mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1), and fibronectin.

MAdCAM-1 is expressed exclusively on endothelial cells of the gut and gut-associated lymphoid tissues, such as Peyer’s patches (PPs), and binding of LPAM-1 to MAdCAM-1 contributes to lymphocyte homing to mucosal tissues3,4.

Vedolizumab, an anti-LPAM-1 monoclonal antibody, is approved to treat inflammatory bowel disease and effectively induces and maintains remission in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis5-8.

Storage and Stability

Functional grade preclinical antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at -80°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

Formulation

This monoclonal antibody is aseptically packaged and formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (150 mM NaCl) PBS pH 7.2 - 7.4 with no carrier protein, potassium, calcium or preservatives added. Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration.
