Flow Cytometry - APC Anti-SIRP alpha antibody [03] (AB275641)
Flow cytometric analysis of U937 (human histiocytic lymphoma cell line) cells labeling SIRP alpha with ab275641 (Black) compared with an isotype control (Grey). Cells should be Fc-blocked by treatment with 20 g of human IgG/106 cells for 1 hour at 4 prior to staining, washed, then stained with ab275641.

Biological function summary
SIRP alpha functions significantly in the regulation of phagocytosis acting as a "don't eat me" signal to macrophages upon binding with CD47. It does not act alone; rather it is part of a complex that recruits SHP-1 and SHP-2 leading to inhibition of dephosphorylation activities essential for engulfment processes. This regulatory mechanism is important for maintaining cellular homeostasis ensuring that healthy cells are not mistakenly destroyed by the immune system.
Pathways
SIRP alpha plays an important role in the innate immune pathways involving the regulation of phagocytosis and cell-cell adhesion. Particularly it fits into the immune checkpoint pathways where it interacts closely with proteins like CD47 and plays a role in the interaction between the immune system and cancer cells. Through these pathways SIRP alpha helps maintain balance in the immune response allowing for the recognition of self versus non-self therefore preventing autoimmunity while facilitating the clearance of pathogens.
