Description: The J116 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human Programmed death-1 (PD-1 or CD279), a 50-55 kDA glycoprotein. It is expressed on mainly on activated B, T, and myeloid cells. Within the cytoplasmic region, PD-1 contains an Immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) and seems to regulate peripheral tolerance. The lack or mutation of CD279 is linked to autoimmune disorders.The J116 antibody does not block the binding of the PD-1 ligand, but does inhibit the PD-1 signal transduction.

Description: The DL-101 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human CD138, a 85-92 kDA type I heparan sulfate proteoglycan. CD138 is known as Syndecan-1 and is expressed on pre-B cells, immature B cells, plasma cells, and malignant plasma cells, to the exclusion of mature circulating B cells. Syndecan-1 is also expressed on vascular smooth muscle, endothelial, neural, and embryonic mesenchymal cells. It is involved in cellular proliferation, cellular migration, and acts as an extracellular matrix receptor. Among the hematopoietic elements, CD138 is a useful marker for plasma cells.

Description: The 53-6.7 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with Ly-2, the 38 kDa alpha chain, and with Lyt-2, the 34 kDa alpha’ chain, of the mouse CD8 antigen. The alpha’ chain is the truncated form of alpha chain, encoded by the same CD8a gene. In CD8a, the alpha and alpha’ chains form heterodimers with CD8b (the beta chains) or homodimers (alpha-alpha), which occur as receptors on the surface of the majority of thymocytes. A subpopulation of mature T lymphocytes expresses the CD8 alpha beta (alpha beta TCR T cells), and a subpopulation of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes and dendritic cells express CD8a without CD8b. CD8 interacts with the mouse major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC class I) molecules on antigen-presenting cells or epithelial cells. Its function seems to be to attenuate the CD8-mediated signal for the stimulation of intrathymic T-cell maturation.The 53-6.7 antibody is useful for depleting CD8+ peripheral T lymphocytes. It cross reacts with the alpha- and alpha’-like polypeptides on some thymic and peripheral lymphocytes.

Description: The PO3.1 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with CD86, also known as B7-2, a surface 80 kDa receptor and member of the B7 family. CD86 is a costimulatory molecule, expressed on B and T cells, dendritic cells, astrocytes, macrophages, Langerhans cells, and at a low level in newly explanted B and T lymphocytes. CD86 expression on B lymphocytes is upregulated by B-Cell Receptor complex, CD40 and certain cytokine receptors. CD80 (B7-1) and CD 86 (B7-2) are receptors for CD28 and CTLA-4, on the surface of T lymphocytes, enhancing the interactions between B and T cells.

Description: The NIB42 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human interferon gamma, a multifunctional cytokine that is produced mainly by activated T and NK cells. Interferon gamma has anti-viral and anti-parasitic properties and plays an important role in the activation, growth, and differentiation of macrophages, B and T lymphocytes, and natural killer cells. It interacts synergically with other cytokines, such as TNF-α, to inhibit proliferation of normal and transformed cells. The NIB42 antibody neutralizes IFN-γ.

Supplier: BIOGEMS INTERNATIONAL INC.

Description: The R4-6A2 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with mouse interferon gamma (IFN-g), an acid-labile interferon produced by CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes as well as activated NK cells. IFN gamma receptors are present in most immune cells, which respond to its signaling by increasing the surface expression of class I MHC proteins. This promotes the presentation of antigen to T-helper (CD4+) cells. Additionally, it stimulates a number of lymphoid cell functions, including the anti-microbial and anti-tumor responses of macrophages, NK cells, and neutrophils.

Description: The 2F1 monoclonal antibody is specific for the mouse Killer cell Lectin-like Receptor G1 (KLRG1), a homodimer consisting of two N-glycosylated subunits of 30-38 kDa, also known as MAFA (Mast cell Function-associated Antigen). The antigen contains a cytoplasmic motif similar to ITIM (the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif). KLRG1 is a receptor for cadherin, a family of transmembrane glycoproteins that mediate cell adhesion, and a common marker of T cell senescence. The receptor is believed to play an important role in the innate and adaptive immune system through the regulation of leukocytes. It is expressed on lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, adherent LAK (A-LAK) cells, a sub-set of natural killer (NK) cells, T cells. In NK cells, it inhibits cytokine production and cytotoxicity activity.The receptor expression was not detected on the mouse peritoneal mast cells, or bone marrow mast cells.

When secreted by natural killer cells and by natural killer T lymphocytes, it regulates the immune response and supports adaptive immunity when produced by Th1 or CD8+ T lymphocytes. IFN-γ plays an important role in the activation, the growth, and the differentiation of the macrophages, B and T lymphocytes, and natural killer cells. It interacts synergically with other cytokines, such as TNF-α, to inhibit proliferation of normal and transformed cells. IFN- γ is the primary cytokine that defines Th-1 cells.The biological activity of IFN-γ is not affected by glycosylation.
