آنتی‌ بادی PD-1 (NAT105)

Name:PD-1 Antibody clone NAT105

Description and aplications: Programmed death-1 (PD-1) is a member of the CD28 family of receptors that includes CD28, cytotoxic T-lymphocyteassociated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), inducible costimulator (ICOS), and B- and T-lymphocyte attenuator. These receptors play a role in the cellular immune response. For example, CD28 serves as a costimulatory receptor that enhances T-cell activation, whereas CTLA-4 serves as an inhibitor of T-cell activation. PD-1 also has an inhibitory function on T cells and B cells, and is important in peripheral tolerance. There are at least 2 ligands for PD-1, PD-L1, and PD-L2, which are expressed on a range of cells.
CD28 is constitutively expressed on most or all CD4+ T cells and approximately 50% of CD8+ T cells, whereas CTLA-4 is not expressed on resting T cells. PD-1 is also expressed on activated T cells, B cells, and myeloid cells. Iwai and coworkers studied the microanatomic distribution of PD-1 in human tonsil and found that PD-1 is expressed on most T cells and a small subset of B cells in the light zone of germinal centers, but not elsewhere in the tonsil. On that basis, it was postulated that PD-1 may play a role in the process of clonal selection of centrocytes, which occurs in this subanatomic site in germinal centers.

Composition: anti-human PD-1 mouse monoclonal antibody purified from ascites. Prepared in 10mM PBS, pH 7.4, with 0.2% BSA and 0.09% sodium azide
