CD86 Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [SJ20-00]

Function :
Cluster of Differentiation 86 (also known as CD86 and B7-2) is a protein constitutively expressed on dendritic cells, Langerhans cells, macrophages, B-cells (including memory B-cells), and on other antigen-presenting cells. Along with CD80, CD86 provides costimulatory signals necessary for T cell activation and survival. Depending on the ligand bound, CD86 can signal for self-regulation and cell-cell association, or for attenuation of regulation and cell-cell disassociation. The CD86 gene encodes a type I membrane protein that is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Additional transcript variants have been described, but their full-length sequences have not been determined. Roles of both CD80 and CD86 are studied in context of many pathologies. Selective inhibition of costimulatory inhibitors was examined in a model of allergic pulmonary inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR). Since initial host response to Staphylococcus aureus, especially the immune response based on T cells, is a contributing factor in the pathogenesis of acute pneumonia, role of the CD80/CD86 pathway in pathogenesis was investigated. The costimulatory molecules were also investigated in context of Bronchial Astma, Treg in cancer, and immunotherapy.{{Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)} site|{Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)} Protein Tyrosine Kinase/RTK|{Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)} Protocol|{Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)} Purity|{Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)} custom synthesis|{Aflibercept (VEGF Trap)} Autophagy}
