Anti Asialo GM1 Antibodies
Anti asialo GM1, rabbit
The glycolipid asialo ganglioside-GM1 (ASGM1) is expressed by T cells in viral infection and by natural killer (NK) cells. ASGM1 is localized in lipid raft structures in NK and CD8(+) T cells. Anti asialo GM1 antibody reduces natural killer (NK) activity in cells of various strains of mice and rats.
To investigate the function of NK cells, or transplant tumor tissue derived from the other species to mice, Anti asialo GM1 antibody is injected to remove NK cells1)2).
Recently, it is reported that ASGM1 is also expressed by Basophils, and Anti asialo GM1 antibody is able to remove Basophils too3).
