B7-2 [Biotinylated]: CTLA-4 Inhibitor Screening ELISA Kit | EP-117| Gentaur Distribution US, UK & Europe

Cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated ANTIgen-4 (CTLA-4), also known as CD152, is a kind of leukocyte differentiation antigen and a transmembrane receptor on T cells, sharing B7 ligand with CD28. The binding of CTLA-4 with B7 induces T cells to be non-reactive and participates in the negative regulation of immune response. The recombinant CTLA-4 Ig can effectively and specifically inhibit cellular and humoral immune responses in vivo and in vitro, and has significant therapeutic effects on transplant rejection and various autoimmune diseases with very low toxicity. It is considered as a promising new immunosuppressive drug at present.

Molecule: CTLAN/A4.

Format: Solid.

Species: Human.

Application: This kit is developed for screening for inhibitors of human CTLA-4 binding to human B7-2.

Kit Component: This inhibitor screening ELISA kit is designed to facilitate the identification and characterization of new CTLA-4 pathway inhibitors. The assay takes advantage of our in house-developed binding of biotinylated human B7-2 to immobilized human CTLA-4 in a functional ELISA assay, and employs a simple colorimetric ELISA platform. Briefly, we provide you with a human Biotinylated B7-2 protein, a human CTLA-4 protein, an anti-CTLA-4 neutralizing antibody (as method verified Std.), and Streptavidin-HRP reagent.

Stability: The unopened kit is stable for 12 months from the date of manufacture if stored at 2°C to 8°C. The opened kit should be stored per components table. The shelf life is 30 days from the date of opening.

Storage Conditions: 2-8℃.
