Biochem/physiol Actions

MHC Class I polypeptide-related sequences A and B (MICA and MICB) are surface glycoproteins expressed constitutively on the enterocytes. They act as ligands for the natural killer group 2, member D (NKG2D) immunoreceptor activation. MICA binds NKG2D receptor and activates the CD8+T cells. Tissue damage or increased expression of MICA results in auto-antibodies detected in early-onset systemic lupus erythematosus and celiac disease.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: LRRTVPPMVNVTRSEASEGNITVTCRASGFYPWNITLSWRQDGVSLSHDT

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Overexpression of autologous proteins can lead to the formation of autoantibodies and autoimmune diseases. MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence A (MICA) is highly expressed in the enterocytes of patients with celiac disease, which arises in response to gluten. The aim

The NKG2D receptor stimulates natural killer cell and T cell responses upon engagement of ligands associated with malignancies and certain autoimmune diseases. However, conditions of persistent NKG2D ligand expression can lead to immunosuppression. In cancer patients, tumor expression and shedding

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I genes typically encode polymorphic peptide-binding chains which are ubiquitously expressed and mediate the recognition of intracellular antigens by cytotoxic T cells. They constitute diverse gene families in different species and include the numerous so-called

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation and synovial hyperplasia leading to progressive joint destruction. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) are central components of the aggressive, tumour-like synovial structure termed pannus, which invades the joint space and cartilage.
