CD14 is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored membrane glycoprotein primarily expressed on monocytes, macrophages, and some granulocytes. It functions as a pattern recognition receptor (PRR) and plays a crucial role in the innate immune response by recognizing bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). CD14 exists in two forms: membrane-bound CD14 (mCD14) and soluble CD14 (sCD14), which can be secreted by activated cells. It acts as a co-receptor for Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and enhances the immune response to LPS by facilitating its delivery to the TLR4-MD2 complex. Additionally, CD14 is involved in TLR4-independent signaling pathways and contributes to tissue homeostasis by promoting the clearance of apoptotic cells.
Flow cytometric analysis of Human CD14 expression on human PBMC (human peripheral blood mononuclear cells). Human PBMC were stained with PE-Cy7 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Left panel) or SDT PE-Cy7 Mouse Anti-Human CD14 Antibody (Right panel) at 5μl/test. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using BD FACSymphony™ A1 and FlowJo™ software.
