Vimentin antibody | AbD2701
Human anti Human vimentin antibody recognizes human vimentin, a class III intermediate filament of ~ 54kDa. Vimentin is preferentially expressed in mesenchymal tissues, and within the immune system is retained throughout T-cell development, with decreasing expression in B lymphocytes with maturation.
In lymphatic tissues vimentin expression is seen in marginal zone areas, but not in follicle centers. A lack of vimentin expression in B cell lymphoma is indicative of follicular center origin.
Human anti Human vimentin antibody recognizes vimentin as a band of ~54 kDa in a number of human cell line lysates by western blotting under reducing conditions.
