Activity summary

CD109 also known as platelet activation antigen 3 is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight around 170 kDa. You can find it mostly expressed on the surface of platelets activated T-cells epithelial cells and some tumor cells. This protein belongs to the α2-macroglobulin/C3 C4 C5 family and plays a part in regulating several cellular activities. CD109 acts mechanically as a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein which suggests its involvement in signal transduction processes.

Biological function summary

The protein CD109 modulates several cellular functions including cell proliferation differentiation and immune response regulation. The protein works as a negative regulator of TGF-β signaling by forming a complex with the TGF-β receptor. This activity influences processes like wound healing and immune regulation where TGF-β plays a vital role. CD109 expression also impacts cellular interactions and behavior in the tumor microenvironment adding additional layers of regulation to its function.

Pathways

CD109 participates in the TGF-β signaling pathway and has effects on processes like fibrosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). This involvement connects CD109 functionally to components such as Smad proteins which mediate the signal for TGF-β pathway downstream effects. CD109's modulation within this pathway suggests a regulatory influence that may alter cellular responses under different physiological conditions.

Associated diseases and disorders

Research associates CD109 with various cancers where it appears to influence tumor progression and metastasis. The protein shows altered expression in glioblastoma and certain leukemias. Its involvement in these cancers links CD109 to other cancer-related proteins such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) which often shows interplay in signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation and survival. Understanding CD109's function and impact can offer insights into new therapeutic targets in oncology.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CD109 antibody (ab235896)

    Paraffin-embedded human placenta tissue stained for CD109 using ab235896 at 1/200 dilution in immunohistochemical analysis.

    After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a biotinylated secondary antibody and visualized tissue using an HRP conjugated SP system.

    HepG2 (Human liver hepatocellular carcinoma cell line) cells stained for CD109 (green) using ab235896 at 1/66 dilution in ICC/IF, followed by an Alexa-Fluor 488® conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L).

    The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, permeabilized using 0.2% Triton X-100 and blocked in 10% normal goat serum. The cells were then incubated with the antibody overnight at 4°C.
