The antibody reacts with extracellular domains on human alphav-integrin chains.

alphav-Integrin is an integral membrane protein involved in cell adhesion. Antibody screening by ELISA revealed the antibody reacted specifically with alphavbeta3. In ELISA on fixed cells (CELISA) the antibody showed a reaction pattern consistent with its recognition of the alphav integrin chain (cells expressing alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 (M21)). The ability of the antibody to recognize native alphav integrins was tested by FACS analysis, where the alphav-expressing cells (M21) reacted strongly with the antibody. Immunoprecipitation from surface labelled cells showed the antibody detected alphav integrin in M21 cells. Furthermore, alphav-integrins can function as receptors for vitronectin. However, the antibody had the ability to disrupt stable interaction between vitronectin and alphavbeta3, and blocked the growth of M21 tumors in nude mice.
