R&D Systems社組換え体タンパク質製品では通常ウシ血清アルブミン(BSA)をキャリアタンパク質として加えています。キャリアタンパク質を加えることで組換え体タンパク質の安定性が高まり、使用期限が長くなります。また、より濃度の低い溶液での保管も可能となります。CF製品はBSAが含まれない製品となります。一般的に細胞培養や、ELISAのスタンダードにはBSA含有製品を推奨しています。CF製品はBSAが影響してしまうアプリケーションに推奨されます。

CD47, also known as Integrin-Associated Protein (IAP) and OA3, is a 40 ‑ 60 kDa variably glycosylated atypical member of the immunoglobulin superfamily (1, 2). Human CD47 is an integral membrane protein that consists of a 123 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD) with a single Ig‑like domain, five membrane‑spanning regions with short intervening loops, and a 34 aa C‑terminal cytoplasmic tail (3). Alternate splicing of human CD47 generates additional isoforms with deletions in the cytoplasmic tail (3). Within the N-terminal ECD, human CD47 shares 63% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat CD47. A portion of the N‑terminal ECD can by shed from smooth muscle cells by MMP‑2‑mediated proteolysis (4). The ubiquitously expressed CD47 binds to SIRP family members on macrophages, neutrophils, and T cells (5, 6). These interactions prevent macrophage-mediated clearance of healthy CD47-expressing cells and promote immune cell transmigration across the vascular endothelium (5 ‑ 8). The CD47-SIRP alpha interaction is species specific, and this lack of cross-species interaction has been implicated in xenotransplantation rejection (16). CD47 associates in cis with Fas on T cells and enhances Fas‑mediated apoptosis; its ligation promotes T cell anergy and dampens Th1 immune responses (9 ‑ 11). CD47 also associates in cis with Integrins  alpha 4 beta 1, alpha V beta 3, alpha 2b beta 3, and  alpha 2 beta 1 which can positively or negatively modulate Integrin‑mediated function (2, 12). In the vasculature, CD47 binding by Thrombospondin-1 inhibits the angiogenic and vasorelaxant effects of nitric oxide (2, 13, 14). On dendritic cells and myeloma cells, CD47 ligation by TSP‑1 induces giant cell formation and osteoclast differentiation (15).
