anti-Anti-CD40L (Ruplizumab), Human IgG1 Antibody

CD40LG

CD40 ligand; tumour necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 5; TNFSF5; CD154; tumour necrosis factor related activation protein; TRAP

Cytokine that binds to CD40/TNFRSF5. Costimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Its cross-linking on T-cells generates a costimulatory signal which enhances the production of IL4 and IL10 in conjunction with the TCR/CD3 ligation and CD28 costimulation. Induces the activation of NF-kappa-B and kinases MAPK8 and PAK2 in T-cells. Induces tyrosine phosphorylation of isoform 3 of CD28. Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL4. Involved in immunoglobulin class switching. The antibody binds specifically to CD40L, a surface receptor expressed on activated T cells which acts as a costimulatory molecule to trigger immune responses. The antibody neutralizes CD40L function, as it blocks the interaction between CD40 and CD40L. When injected into cynomolgus monkeys, the antibody was found to have a T1/2 of 531  ± 155 hours.

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

If you buy Antibodies supplied by Biovision they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.
