Description
Anti-BCMA-Anti-CD19-Anti-CD3-His Trispecific Antibody | 100761-1 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: CAR-T/Antibody
Application: This product is for research use only. It is not suitable for human diagnostic or therapeutic use. The anti-BCMA-anti CD19-anti-CD3 can be used for studying BCMA+ cancer cell-mediated T cell activation, using either primary T cells or reporter cell lin
Background: B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), also known as tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17 (TNFRSF17), is a protein encoded by the TNFRSF17 gene. TNFRSF17 is a cell surface receptor of the TNF receptor superfamily that recognizes B-cell activating factor (BAFF). BCMA is preferentially expressed in mature B lymphocytes and also on Multiple Myeloma (MM) cells. Upregulation of BCMA also correlates with disease burden and prognosis in multiple myeloma. B-lymphocyte antigen CD19 (Cluster of Differentiation 19), also known as B-Lymphocyte Surface Antigen B4 and CVID3, is a transmembrane protein expressed in follicular dendritic cells and all B lineage cells except plasma cells. CD19 plays two major roles in human B cells. It acts as an adaptor protein to recruit cytoplasmic signaling proteins to the membrane and it works within the CD19/CD21 complex to decrease the threshold for B cell receptor signaling pathways. Due to its presence on all B cells, it is a biomarker for B lymphocyte development and lymphoma diagnosis and can be used as a target for leukemia immunotherapies.
Description: The Anti-BCMA-Anti-CD19-Anti-CD3-His Trispecific Antibody is engineered to bind to three different targets simultaneously: 1) BCMA, a B cell antigen that is highly expressed by mature B cells and malignant myeloma cells, 2) CD19, a B-cell marker that is a target for many leukemias and lymphomas, and 3) CD3, a T cell receptor activation signal that leads to cytokine secretion. The multi-functionality of this trispecific antibody allows it to bind to BCMA and CD19 on the tumor cell and CD3 on T cells simultaneously, thus bringing T lymphocytes closer to the cancer cells. The binding event targets the tumor while providing co-stimulatory signals that promote T cell expansion and cytotoxicity against BCMA+ and CD19+ cancer cells.
