CHO cells
Species:
Human
source-species:
CHO cells
Recombinant Protein Sequence:
The extracellular domain of human B7-H4 (aa 29-258) is fused to the N-terminus of the Fc region of human IgG1.
Fusion Tag:
Fc Tag
Application Note:
This recombinant proteins is for research use only.
Biological Activity:
Measured by the ablility to inhibit anti-CD3-induced proliferation of stimulated human T cells. Human T lymphocytes cultured for 72 hours with PHA were incubated for an additional 3 days in 96 well place coated with 500 ng/ml anti-CD3 and 10ug/ml human B7H4/Fc. The presence of human B7H4/Fc at 10ug/ml inhibited anti CD3 response by 30-50%. Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application.

Background:
B7H4 is a B7 family member that negatively regulates T cell immunity by inhibiting of T cell proliferation, cytokine production, and cell cycle progression. In vitro, B7H4 inhibits CD4+ and CD8+ T cell proliferation, cytokine production, and generation of alloreactive cytotoxic T-cells (CTLs). In vivo, blockade of endogenous B7-H4 by specific monoclonal antibody promotes T cell responses. B7-H4 ia an important negative regulator of innate immunity through growth inhibition of neutrophils. B7-H4 is expressed on some tumor cancer cells. The role of B7-H4 in tumor progression may be to transform precancerous cells and then protect them from immunosurveillance.
