Anti-CD63 recognizes an extracellular fragment of CD63, a 56-kilodalton (kDa), type III lysosomal glycoprotein, belonging to the tetraspanin family. CD63 is expressed by granulocytes, platelets, T-cells, monocytes/macrophages, endothelial cells. CD63 protein is also expressed in exosome membrane. CD63 interacts with integrins and affects phagocytosis and cell migration. CD63 also serves as a T-cell co-stimulator molecule. Expression of CD63 can be used for predicting the prognosis in earlier stages of carcinomas. CD63 protein is a canonical exosome marker and currently used to characterize exosome populations from a variety of body fluids. 

This antibody is quality control tested on exosomes by ELISA and flow cytometry.
