CD11b is a 165-170kD type I transmembrane glycoprotein also known as aM integrin, Mac-1, CR3, and C3biR. CD11b non-covalently associates with integrin b2 (CD18) and is expressed on granulocytes, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, NK cells, and subsets of T and B cells. CD11b/CD18 is critical for the transendothelial migration of monocytes and neutrophils. The ICRF44 antibody inhibits granulocyte activation in response to fMLP.
