MerTK is expressed on tissue macrophages and is involved in the removal of apoptotic cells. This process relies on two soluble ligands of MerTK, Protein S and Gas6 that bind to phosphatidylserine found on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane of cells undergoing apoptosis. Upon binding these ligands, MerTK undergoes autophosphorylation at multiple tyrosine residues that activate the PI3K and Akt pathways. This results in the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and also results in the direct inhibition of TLR-induced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In addition, MerTK may function as a putative entry receptor for filoviruses. Deficiency of MerTK causes general autoimmunity, inflammation and accumulation of apoptotic bodies. MerTK is constitutively released from the cell surface by metalloproteinases and thus is present in the serum and culture medium. This process can be enhanced by stimulation with LPS. MerTK can be used to help discriminate macrophages from dendritic cells. MerTK is often expressed on malignant cells and may be implicated in immune evasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApplications Reported:  This DS5MMER antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis, immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue sections, western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and functional assays. (Fluorochrome-conjugated DS5MMER is recommended for use in flow cytometry).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApplications Tested: This DS5MMER antibody was demonstrated to inhibit Gas6-induced MerTK phosphorylation with the IC50 \u0026lt; 5 nM. Mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages were serum starved in the presence of 0.1 mM dexamethasone for 18 hours followed by a 15 minute Gas6 stimulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis DS5MMER antibody has also been tested by immunohistochemistry on frozen mouse tissue and can be used at less than or equal to 5 µg\/mL. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStorage and handling: Use in a sterile environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFiltration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePurity: Greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEndotoxin Level:  Less than 0.001 ng\/µg antibody, as determined by LAL assay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAggregation:  Less than 10%, as determined by HPLC.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eFor Research Use Only.
