Specificity: Specific to the beta chain of the leukocyte integrin beta-2 family. This is found in LFA-1, Mac-1 and p150.95 among others. Binds an epitope distinct from the C3bi binding site. Has been shown to recognise both the human and Rhesus monkey antigen.
Preparation: Blood was obtained from 4 helathy donors and the mononuclear cells harvested and grown. A BALB/c mouse was injected with 10^6 monocytes three times at monthly intervals, and four times with 5x10^6 monocytes oon each of the four days before fusion. The spleen cells were then fused to P3U1 myeloma cells to generate hybridomas and RIA was used to identify lines of interest.
CD18, also known as the integrin beta 2 subunit, is a 90-95 kDa type I transmembrane protein expressed on all leukocytes. It heterodimerizes with the alpha chains of CD11a, CD11b, CD11c, and CD11d to form various leukocyte (beta2) integrins, which are crucial for cellular adhesion and signaling. The CD18/CD11a complex, known as lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), plays a significant role in cellular adhesion and inflammatory reactions. CD18 also forms heterodimers with CD11b (Mac-1, CR3), CD11c, and CD11d, contributing to the processes of cell adhesion and cell-surface mediated signaling. These integrins are essential for proper leukocyte migration and mediating intercellular contacts. The absence of CD18 leads to leukocyte adhesion deficiency type I (LAD1), a condition characterized by impaired leukocyte migration. Severe reduction in CD18 expression can result in the development of a psoriasiform skin disease. CD18 is also a target of Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica leukotoxin, which can mediate leukotoxin-induced cytolysis. Defects in the CD18 gene are the cause of LAD1, and two transcript variants encoding the CD18 protein have been identified. The integrin-mediated responses are often a composite of the functions of its individual subunits, highlighting the importance of CD18 in immune function and disease.
