Related Product Information for
anti-TREM2 antibody
The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 (TREM2) is a membrane protein that interacts with the TYROBP protein. The TREM2 and TYROBP proteins form a complex that transmits chemical signals to activate the cell. This complex is involved in the growth and development of several types of immune cells, particularly dendritic cells and activates these cells, triggering an inflammatory response to injury or disease. And the TYROBP-TREM2 complex also activates cells in the skeletal system and in the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system).

WB: 1:500 ~ 1,000.
Recommended starting dilution is 1:500.
Western Blot (WB) of anti-TREM2 antibody
Cell lysates of HeLa, MCF7, LNCaP and mouse brain (30ug) were resolved by SDS-PAGE, transferred to NC membrane and probed with anti-human TREM2 (1:500). Proteins were visualized using a goat anti-mouse secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and an ECL detection system.

NCBI Summary for TREM2
This gene encodes a membrane protein that forms a receptor signaling complex with the TYRO protein tyrosine kinase binding protein. The encoded protein functions in immune response and may be involved in chronic inflammation by triggering the production of constitutive inflammatory cytokines. Defects in this gene are a cause of polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
UniProt Comments for TREM2
Forms a receptor signaling complex with TYROBP and triggers activation of the immune responses in macrophages and dendritic cells. May have a role in chronic inflammations and may stimulate production of constitutive rather than inflammatory chemokines and cytokines.
