Human CD24(Signal transducer CD24) ELISA Kit

Background

CD24 is a small, heavily glycosylated cell surface protein that plays a crucial role in modulating immune responses, cell adhesion, and signal transduction. It is expressed in a wide range of tissues, including hematopoietic cells, neurons, epithelial cells, and cancer cells. CD24 has gained significant attention for its role in the immune system and its involvement in cancer biology. It has been implicated in both autoimmune diseases and tumor progression, making it an important molecule for understanding various pathophysiological processes. CD24 is involved in modulating immune responses, particularly in the context of inflammation, tumor immunology, and autoimmunity. It acts as a key regulator of innate immunity by interacting with various receptors, such as Siglec-10 on macrophages, to dampen inflammatory responses and promote immune tolerance. In the tumor microenvironment, CD24 can contribute to the immune evasion of cancer cells, allowing them to escape destruction by the immune system.
