Description: This MAb recognizes a protein of 36kDa, identified as ICOSLG, which is also known as B7-related protein-1 (B7RP-1).T-cell co-stimulatory molecule, inducible co-stimulator (ICOS)/B7-related protein-1 (B7RP-1, B7-H2, GL50, ICOS-L) is a ligand for the ICOS receptor that initiates T and B cell proliferation and cytokine secretion. ICOS-L interactions play an essential role in T cell-dependent B cell activation in peripheral lymphoid organs such as spleen and lymph nodes. ICOS-L protein is present in myeloid leukocytes, and by northern blot there are 2.4, 3.0, and 7.0 kb transcripts in brain, heart, kidney, and liver, with lower expression in colon and thymus, and a 1.1 kb transcript in leukocytes. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) enhance its expression. LPS-induced up-regulation of ICOS-L is dependent on the MyD88-dependent signaling pathway.

Immunogen: A recombinant fragment of human ICOS Ligand / B7RP-1 protein within amino acids 23-149 was used as the immunogen for the ICOSLG antibody.

Storage: Store the ICOSLG antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
