Anti-Annexin A1/ANXA1 antibody

Target data

Plays important roles in the innate immune response as effector of glucocorticoid-mediated responses and regulator of the inflammatory process. Has anti-inflammatory activity (PubMed : 8425544). Plays a role in glucocorticoid-mediated down-regulation of the early phase of the inflammatory response (By similarity). Contributes to the adaptive immune response by enhancing signaling cascades that are triggered by T-cell activation, regulates differentiation and proliferation of activated T cells (PubMed : 17008549). Promotes the differentiation of T cells into Th1 cells and negatively regulates differentiation into Th2 cells (PubMed : 17008549). Has no effect on unstimulated T cells (PubMed : 17008549). Negatively regulates hormone exocytosis via activation of the formyl peptide receptors and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton (PubMed : 19625660). Has high affinity for Ca(2+) and can bind up to eight Ca(2+) ions (By similarity). Displays Ca(2+)-dependent binding to phospholipid membranes (PubMed : 2532504, PubMed : 8557678). Plays a role in the formation of phagocytic cups and phagosomes. Plays a role in phagocytosis by mediating the Ca(2+)-dependent interaction between phagosomes and the actin cytoskeleton (By similarity). In the context of antitumor immunity, interacts with FPR1 on dendritic cells allowing for tumor-associated antigens uptake and cross-presentation to T cells to mount an antitumor specific T cell response.. Annexin Ac2-26. Functions at least in part by activating the formyl peptide receptors and downstream signaling cascades (PubMed : 15187149, PubMed : 22879591, PubMed : 25664854). Promotes chemotaxis of granulocytes and monocytes via activation of the formyl peptide receptors (PubMed : 15187149). Promotes rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton, cell polarization and cell migration (PubMed : 15187149). Promotes resolution of inflammation and wound healing (PubMed : 25664854). Acts via neutrophil N-formyl peptide receptors to enhance the release of CXCL2 (PubMed : 22879591).
