CD134 / Unconjugated / OX40/3108

Product Details

Description	This MAb recognizes a protein of 43kDa, identified as OX40, which is also known as CD134. OX40 is a type I integral membrane glycoprotein and member of the tumor necrosis factor/nerve growth factor receptor (TNFR/NGFR) family. It is expressed on activated T lymphocytes, hematopoietic precursor cells and fibroblasts. It functions as a T cell co-stimulatory receptor when bound by OX40 Ligand / TNFSF4 that is expressed by antigen presenting cells. OX40 thereby plays roles in T-cell activation as well as the regulation of differentiation, proliferation or apoptosis of normal and malignant lymphoid cells. OX40 is upregulated at the sites of inflammation, especially in case of multiple sclerosis and psoriatic lesions.

About CD134
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor has been shown to activate NF-kappaB through its interaction with adaptor proteins TRAF2 and TRAF5. Knockout studies in mice suggested that this receptor promotes the expression of apoptosis inhibitors BCL2 and BCL2lL1/BCL2-XL, and thus suppresses apoptosis. The knockout studies also suggested the roles of this receptor in CD4+ T cell response, as well as in T cell-dependent B cell proliferation and differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
