Long Description:
Recombinant Antibody. Recognizes and binds human CD40L with an IC50 of 0.845µg/ml. Cross-reacts with canine CD40L. Species cross-reactivity: Dog, Human. Clone: hu5c8. Isotype: Human IgG1kappa. Applications: FACS, FUNC, FUNC (Blocking), WB. Host: . Liquid. In PBS. CD40 Ligand (CD40L), renamed TNFSF5 but now also known as CD154, TRAP and gp39, is a 34-39kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein, that belongs to the TNF superfamily, and a surface receptor expressed on activated T cells which acts as a costimulatory molecule to trigger immune responses. CD40L binds to CD40, which is essential in mediating a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses including T cell-dependent immunoglobulin class switching, memory B cell development and germinal center formation. CD40 is constitutively expressed by antigen presenting cells, including dendritic cells, B cells and macrophages. Consistent with its widespread expression on normal cells, CD40 is also expressed on a wide range of tumor cells. CD40L levels are increased in serum and in inflamed tissues of patients with autoimmune diseases.
NCBI, Uniprot Number:
P29965
Other data:
This antibody is a biosimilar called Ruplizumab (Antova; BG9588) and originally developed by Biogen. Ruplizumab is a CD40 ligand blocker designed for the treatment of rheumatic diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis, but withdrawn from clinical trials due to side effects.
