CLEC10A, also known as macrophage galactose/N-acetyl-galactosamine (GalNAc) specific lectin (MGL), CD301, DC-ASGPR, and HML, is a 35-40 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the C-type lectin family (1). Human and rat carry a single gene for CLEC10A/MGL, while mouse has two closely related MGL1 and MGL2 genes. Human CLEC10A/MGL consists of a 39 amino acid (aa) cytoplasmic region, a 21 aa transmembrane segment and a 256 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with one carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) and a neck region (2). Within the CRD, human CLEC10A/MGL shares 64% - 70% aa sequence identity with mouse MGL1, mouse MGL2, and rat MGL. Alternate splicing generates multiple isoforms of human CLEC10A/MGL with 27 aa, 3 aa, and/or 4 aa deletions within the ECD (3, 4). CLEC10A/MGL is expressed on immature myleloid dendritic cells and alternatively activated (tolerogenic) macrophages and is upregulated by the immunosuppressant dexamethasone (3-7). CLEC10A/MGL selectively binds and internalizes terminal nonsialylated alpha - or beta -linked GalNAc moieties on O-linked carbohydrates, including the Tn carcinoma antigen (2-4, 8, 9). Similar ligand preference is exhibited by mouse MGL2 but not MGL1 (10). CLEC10A/MGL expressed on tolerogenic dendritic cells binds carbohydrate determinants on CD45 (RA, RB, and RC but not RO isoforms) expressed by T, NK, and B cells (6). This interaction inhibits effector T cell activation and induces their apoptosis (6). CLEC10A/MGL also binds the GP envelope glycoprotein on Marburg and Ebola viruses and enhances viral entry and infectivity (11).

Scientific Data Images for CLEC10A/CD301 Antibody
Detection of Human CLEC10A/CD301 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of human immature dendritic cells and human mature dendritic cells. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Mouse CLEC10A/CD301 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4888) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). A specific band was detected for CLEC10A/CD301 at approximately 35 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.Detection of CLEC10A in Human Dendritic Cells by Flow Cytometry.
Human immature dendritic cells were stained with Goat Anti-Human/Mouse CLEC10A/CD301 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4888, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0108).Detection of Mouse CLEC10A/CD301 by Western Blot.

C1GalT suppression reduces tumour growth in chicken embryos and more macrophages and dendritic cells are accumulated in the tumour microenvironment of ME C1galt1-/-/Erb mice than of C1galt1f/f/Erb mice.GFP-SW620shC1GT and GFP-SW620shCon cells (1.8 × 106 cells) without or with 5 µg galectin-3 was implanted in the CAMs at Day 7 and tumour sizes were measured at Day 14 of embryonation. Representative images of the tumours grown on CAM at Day 14 are shown in (a). Tumour volume are shown in (b) (number of eggs with detectable tumour/total number of eggs at Day 14 are also shown on top of each bar). Data are expressed as mean ± SD, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 (T test). c, d Fewer macrophages and dendritic cells were seen in the tumour microenvironment of C1galt1f/f/Erb mice than in ME C1galt1-/-/Erb mice. Lower expression of TF and higher expression of Tn were found in the tumours of ME C1galt1-/-/Erb mice compared with C1galt1f/f/Erb mice. Higher number of macrophages (F4/80 positive, MGL-positive) and dendritic cells (CD11c positive, MGL positive) are seen in the tumours of ME C1galt1-/-/Erb mice compared with C1galt1f/f/Erb mice. Two mice in each group were randomly selected and analyzed and representative images are shown.
