MacroCargo™ Human PBMC-derived Macrophages with Anti-Phosphatidylserine antibody (Viral System, Lentivirus) (MTS-1222-YF47)

Datasheet

Cell Properties

Product Overview

As a therapeutic tool, macrophage cell has a great capacity for delivering cargos because of their intrinsic characteristics. This product is engineered Human PBMC-derived Macrophages carried with Anti-Phosphatidylserine antibody by Viral System-Lentivirus. MacroCargo™ products aim to improve the macrophage function and delivery of specific cargos. We also provide custom macrophage delivery systems based on your specific requirements.

Cell Background

Macrophages are specialised cells involved in the detection, phagocytosis and destruction of bacteria and other harmful organisms. In addition, they can also present antigens to T cells and initiate inflammation by releasing molecules (known as cytokines) that activate other cells. Furthermore, macrophages are able to cross the biological barriers, penetrate into tumors, and accumulate particularly in hypoxic and poorly vascularized portions of a tumor.

Anti-Phosphatidylserine antibody

Introduction

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid located in the inner layer of the plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells. Once the cell dies, the PS is moved to the outer layer of the membrane and is exposed. Endothelial cells, MDSCs, macrophages, DCs, B, T, and NK cells express PS receptors(PSR). The PS/PSR interaction triggers efferocytosis and activates inhibitory pathways that prevent the development of inflammation in response to apoptosis.
