DR3 Monoclonal / Unconjugated / JD3

Product Details

Description	DR3, also known as APO-3, TRAMP or TNFRSF25, is a death domain-containing receptor of TNFR family, which is expressed preferentially in peripheral blood leukocytes and in the lymphocyte-enriched tissues. Its expression has been shown to be especially up-regulated in activated T cells. DR3 participates e.g. in the removal of self-reactive T cells in the thymus. The ligand for DR3 is TL1A (TNF-like ligand 1A), which is expressed in a variety of cell types (induced by inflammatory stimuli), and can also be released as a soluble factor. The TL1A/DR3 axis has been shown to costimulate T cells to produce a wide variety of cytokines and leads to T cell differentiation towards Th1 and Th17 types.

About DR3
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor is expressed preferentially in the tissues enriched in lymphocytes, and it may play a role in regulating lymphocyte homeostasis. This receptor has been shown to stimulate NF-kappa B activity and regulate cell apoptosis. The signal transduction of this receptor is mediated by various death domain containing adaptor proteins. Knockout studies in mice suggested the role of this gene in the removal of self-reactive T cells in the thymus. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported, most of which are potentially secreted molecules. The alternative splicing of this gene in B and T cells encounters a programmed change upon T-cell activation, which predominantly produces full-length, membrane bound isoforms, and is thought to be involved in controlling lymphocyte proliferation induced by T-cell activation.
