                        Rat anti pig CD44 antibody, clone MAC329 recognizes the porcine CD44 cell surface antigen which is involved in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion and migration. CD44 is also a receptor for hyaluronic acid and can interact with other ligands, such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).
