It binds and internalizes long-chain fatty acids, oxidized low-density lipoprotein, and other ligands, linking it to lipid uptake, fatty acid metabolism, and energy homeostasis. CD36 also functions in inflammation, angiogenesis, and immune recognition. In disease, CD36 contributes to atherosclerosis through foam cell formation and promotes tumor progression and metastasis by supporting fatty acid uptake in cancer cells. These broad roles make CD36 an important target in metabolic, cardiovascular, and cancer research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description \u0026amp; Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe h\/m CD36 shRNA Lentivirus delivers validated short hairpin RNA targeting human and mouse CD36 from a third-generation, self-inactivating lentiviral backbone. shRNA expression is driven by a U6 promoter, with a co-expressed fluorescent reporter (GFP or RFP) and antibiotic selection marker. VSV-G pseudotyping enables broad tropism across primary, suspension, and cryopreserved cells, and each shRNA is validated for at least 70% CD36 knockdown by a fluorescence-based method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-titer particles are ultra-purified by PEG precipitation and sucrose gradient centrifugation. A shRNA set option provides a mix of two independent validated shRNAs plus a scrambled control. Applications include loss-of-function studies of fatty acid uptake, lipid metabolism, inflammation, and tumor metabolism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Product\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis validated shRNA lentivirus targeting CD36 (NCBI Accession: NM_001001548) delivers a 19–20 bp shRNA from a third-generation, self-inactivating lentiviral backbone. Expression is driven from a U6 Pol III promoter, with a constitutively expressed fluorescent reporter (GFP, GFP\/Luc, RFP, RFP\/Luc) and antibiotic selection marker (Blasticidin, Puromycin) co-expressed from the same vector. VSV-G pseudotyping enables broad cell tropism, including primary, suspension, and cryopreserved cell types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnockdown is validated using a proprietary bicistronic fluorescence assay in which the target mRNA is co-expressed fused to RFP alongside the shRNA-GFP construct. At least 70% reduction in RFP signal in GFP-positive cells confirms on-target activity — a more direct functional readout than transcript-level qPCR. Polyclonal stable lines can be generated by antibiotic selection within 10 days, preserving parental cell heterogeneity compared to single-clone CRISPR approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LipExoGen Biotech","offers":[{"title":"GFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6 (sh-mix) + 5x10^6 (scr-mix)","offer_id":53251617325421,"sku":"LSV-0011-SET1","price":1195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6 (sh-mix) + 5x10^6 (scr-mix)","offer_id":53311258034541,"sku":"LSV-0011-SET2","price":1195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53311258067309,"sku":"LSV-0011-1S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53311258100077,"sku":"LSV-0011-2S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFP\/Luc \/ None \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53311258132845,"sku":"LSV-0011-3S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP\/Luc \/ None \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53311258165613,"sku":"LSV-0011-4S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GFP \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53311258198381,"sku":"LSV-0011-5S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"RFP \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53311258231149,"sku":"LSV-0011-6S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"None \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53311258263917,"sku":"LSV-0011-7S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"None \/ Blasticidin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53311258296685,"sku":"LSV-0011-8S","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/LSV-0010-h-CD36-sh-Fig1.jpg?v=1776934151","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/h-m-cd36-shrna-lentivirus-bhv19400128","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
