Product Description: NP-PE (Phycoerythrin) is an immune complex. The formation and transport of NP-PE (Phycoerythrin) depends on the complement system, specifically through the complement receptors CR1 and CR2. These receptors are expressed on the surface of B cells and help B cells capture and transport immune complexes. NP-PE (Phycoerythrin) can be used to study the mechanisms by which B cells capture and transport immune complexes in lymph nodes[1].
