CD117 is a 145 kD protein tyrosine kinase also known as c-Kit and stem cell factor receptor (SCFR). It belongs to the CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily. CD117 is a receptor for stem cell factor (SCF) or c-Kit ligand. CD117 is expressed on pluripotent hematopoietic progenitor cells, mast cells, and acute myeloid leukemia cells (AML). c-Kit ligand binding of CD117 induces dimerization and phosphorylation of CD117, and activates the downstream signaling, including PI3K, JAK/STAT, PLC-γ and MAPK pathways. Consequently, it stimulates proliferation and survival of primitive hematopoietic stem cells as well as erythroid-committed and granulo-monocytic committed cells. The turnover rate of CD117 depends on ligand binding and its kinase activity. CD117 is also downregulated by PKC-mediated proteolytic cleavage. Additionlly, ADAM-17 mediates shedding of CD117 on the surface of mast cells. SCF/CD117 ligation protects vascular smooth musle cells against apoptosis and increases hyperplasia after vascular injury. The ligation also regulates cell survival and cell infiltration of mast cells in tumor microenviroment. Some evidence indicates that CD117 constitutively associates with interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAcP), and activates IL-33-induced cytokine production upon costimulation with c-Kit ligand in primary mast cells. CD117 is upregulated on dendritic cells by house dust mite allergen and mucosal adjuvant cholera toxin (CT), and consequently regulates Th2's and Th17's responses.

Related FAQs
- Do you guarantee that your antibodies are totally pathogen free?
-
BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house aside from the GoInVivo™ product line. However, upon request, this can be tested on a custom basis with an outside, independent laboratory.
- Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody by functional assay?
-
No, BioLegend does not test Ultra-LEAF™ antibodies by functional assays unless otherwise indicated. Due to the possible complexities and variations of uses of biofunctional antibodies in different assays and because of the large product portfolio, BioLegend does not currently perform functional assays as a routine QC for the antibodies. However, we do provide references in which the antibodies were used for functional assays and we do perform QC to verify the specificity and quality of the antibody based on our strict specification criteria.
- Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for potential pathogens?
-
No, BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house unless otherwise indicated. However, we can recommend an outside vendor to perform this testing as needed.
- Have you tested this Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for in vivo or in vitro applications?
-
We don't test our antibodies for in vivo or in vitro applications unless otherwise indicated. Depending on the product, the TDS may describe literature supporting usage of a particular product for bioassay. It may be best to further consult the literature to find clone specific information.
