1 Only thioglycollate-elicited macrophages express cell surface Mac-2, and binding is mostly (> 80%) a result of affinity for cell surface carbohydrate structures. Thioglycolates lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 Mus musculus
2 Mac-2 surface expression is markedly reduced upon further activation of thioglycollate-elicited macrophages with bacterial lipopolysaccharide in vitro. Thioglycolates lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 Mus musculus
3 Chemical cross-linking experiments have identified binding of endogenous cell-surface Mac-2 to three glycoproteins of molecular masses of 92, 125, and 180 kDa containing alpha-galactosyl and polylactosamine structures on thioglycollate-elicited macrophages. Thioglycolates lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 Mus musculus
4 The restricted cell surface distribution of Mac-2 on thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages, a population of recently recruited monocytes, suggests a role(s) in early events of macrophage infiltration and tissue fixation such as extravasion and cell-matrix interactions. Thioglycolates lectin, galactose binding, soluble 3 Mus musculus
