Function

Forms a receptor signaling complex with TYROBP which mediates signaling and cell activation following ligand binding (PubMed:10799849). Acts as a receptor for amyloid-beta protein 42, a cleavage product of the amyloid-beta precursor protein APP, and mediates its uptake and degradation by microglia (PubMed:27477018, PubMed:29518356). Binding to amyloid-beta 42 mediates microglial activation, proliferation, migration, apoptosis and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL6R and CCL3, and the anti-inflammatory cytokine ARG1 (By similarity). Acts as a receptor for lipoprotein particles such as LDL, VLDL, and HDL and for apolipoproteins such as APOA1, APOA2, APOB, APOE, APOE2, APOE3, APOE4, and CLU and enhances their uptake in microglia (PubMed:27477018). Binds phospholipids (preferably anionic lipids) such as phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and sphingomyelin (PubMed:29794134). Regulates microglial proliferation by acting as an upstream regulator of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling cascade (By similarity). Required for microglial phagocytosis of apoptotic neurons (PubMed:24990881). Also required for microglial activation and phagocytosis of myelin debris after neuronal injury and of neuronal synapses during synapse elimination in the developing brain (By similarity). Regulates microglial chemotaxis and process outgrowth, and also the microglial response to oxidative stress and lipopolysaccharide (By similarity). It suppresses PI3K and NF-kappa-B signaling in response to lipopolysaccharide; thus promoting phagocytosis, suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokine and nitric oxide production, inhibiting apoptosis and increasing expression of IL10 and TGFB (By similarity). During oxidative stress, it promotes anti-apoptotic NF-kappa-B signaling and ERK signaling (By similarity). Plays a role in microglial MTOR activation and metabolism (By similarity). Regulates age-related changes in microglial numbers (PubMed:29752066). Triggers activation of the immune responses in macrophages and dendritic cells (PubMed:10799849). Mediates cytokine-induced formation of multinucleated giant cells which are formed by the fusion of macrophages (By similarity). In dendritic cells, it mediates up-regulation of chemokine receptor CCR7 and dendritic cell maturation and survival (PubMed:11602640). Involved in the positive regulation of osteoclast differentiation (PubMed:12925681).

Notes

ab244673 is a BSA and Azide Free antibody supplied in an unconjugated format and it is suitable for sandwich ELISAs to quantify Human TREM2. The recommended pair for sandwich ELISA is:
Capture: ab244673, Human TREM2 Capture Antibody (unconjugated)
Detector: ab244938, Human TREM2 Detector Antibody (unconjugated)
The reference range value is 78.1 - 5000 pg/ml.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Biological function summary

TREM2 significantly influences immune responses by participating in cellular clearance functions such as phagocytosis. It forms a receptor complex with DAP12 which transduces signals leading to the activation of immune responses. TREM2 aids in regulating inflammatory responses and ensures the maintenance of tissue homeostasis in healthy and diseased states. Its role extends to the control of lipid metabolism particularly in the central nervous system.

Activity summary

TREM2 also known as Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 2 functions as a receptor with an important role in the immune system. This protein weighing about 230-290 kDa mostly expresses in myeloid cells which include macrophages monocytes and microglia. It serves as an important player in signaling for the activation of these cells. Researchers often study TREM2's functions through various species including cynomolgus monkeys to understand its implications better.

Pathways

Scientific studies link TREM2 to the immune-inflammatory pathway and the neurodegenerative pathway. Within these pathways TREM2 interacts notably with proteins such as DAP12 and SYK. Through these interactions TREM2 contributes to signaling cascades that modulate inflammation and neurodegenerative processes within the brain supporting cellular communication and survival.

Associated diseases and disorders

TREM2's functionality connects significantly with Alzheimer's disease and various inflammatory conditions. In Alzheimer's disease mutations in TREM2 alter its normal activity potentially increasing neuroinflammation and advancing disease progression. Additionally collaborations between TREM2 and ApoE proteins further highlight its involvement in lipid regulation within neurodegenerative conditions. Understanding TREM2’s role can pave the way for targeted therapeutic approaches in these disorders.
