Biological function summary
CD11b plays a critical role in various immune responses by mediating phagocytosis chemotaxis and cell migration. It is essential for proper leukocyte adherence to endothelial cells and for the engulfment of pathogens or apoptotic cells. CD11b as part of the Mac-1 complex contributes to the immune surveillance and inflammatory processes. This complex interacts with diverse ligands like ICAM-1 fibrinogen and complement component iC3b facilitating an immunological response.
Pathways
CD11b is instrumental within the integrin signaling pathway and the Leukocyte Transendothelial Migration pathway. Its interaction with ICAM-1 is central to the leukocyte adhesion cascade influencing the movement of immune cells across endothelial barriers. CD11b also associates with proteins such as Src family kinases and PI3K which activate downstream signaling responsible for the reorganization of the cytoskeleton and cell movement during immune responses.
