CXCR5 Antibody / C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 5, 20ug

Burkitt Lymphoma Receptor 1 antibody, also known as CXCR5 antibody, recognizes C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 5, a seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor encoded by the CXCR5 gene and commonly referred to as CD185. Burkitt Lymphoma Receptor 1 is primarily localized to the plasma membrane of B lymphocytes and subsets of T cells, particularly follicular helper T cells, where it regulates chemokine-directed cell migration. As a member of the CXC chemokine receptor family, CXCR5 binds the ligand CXCL13 and plays a central role in lymphoid follicle organization and germinal center formation.<br><br>Burkitt Lymphoma Receptor 1 antibody detects a multi-pass transmembrane receptor composed of seven alpha-helical membrane-spanning domains, extracellular regions responsible for ligand binding, and intracellular domains that couple to heterotrimeric G proteins. Upon binding CXCL13, CXCR5 activates downstream signaling pathways that promote cytoskeletal rearrangement and directed chemotaxis. Through these mechanisms, CD185 directs B cells and T follicular helper cells into B cell follicles within secondary lymphoid tissues, supporting adaptive immune responses and antibody affinity maturation.<br><br>Functionally, CXCR5 is essential for humoral immunity and proper germinal center architecture. Expression of Burkitt Lymphoma Receptor 1 defines follicular B cells and T follicular helper cells and is widely used as a marker in immunophenotyping studies. Dysregulated CXCR5 signaling has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, chronic inflammatory disorders, and lymphoid malignancies. In certain B cell lymphomas, altered CXCR5 expression may influence tumor cell localization and interaction with the lymphoid microenvironment.<br><br>The CXCR5 gene is located on chromosome 11 and is transcriptionally regulated during lymphocyte activation and differentiation. Because Burkitt Lymphoma Receptor 1 expression is largely restricted to defined immune cell subsets, detection of this receptor provides insight into lymphocyte trafficking, germinal center dynamics, and immune cell compartmentalization within tissues.<br><br>The Burkitt Lymphoma Receptor 1 antibody (clone CXCR5/13100) is suitable for detecting CXCR5 protein expression in research applications. This CXCR5 antibody supports investigation of B cell biology, T follicular helper cell function, lymphoid tissue organization, and immune-mediated disease mechanisms.
