About InVivoMAb anti-human EphA2 The SHM16 monoclonal antibody reacts with human Ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2). EphA2 is a ~130 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinase family. EphA2 is variably expressed by epithelial cells, dendritic cells, Langerhans cells, keratinocytes, and endothelial cells. EphA2 functions as a receptor for glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) membrane-linked members of the Ephrin-A family, including Ephrins A1-A5. EphA2 is involved in regulating cellular growth, adhesion, migration, survival, and plays a role in angiogenesis. Its expression may be upregulated on vascular endothelium in certain breast, prostate, and colon cancers as well as on some metastatic tumor cells.
