Description
LIGHT-CHO Recombinant Cell Line | 79262 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: Immunotherapy/Cell Line
Application: This cell line is useful for LIGHT binding assays, flow cytometry, or for screening for LIGHT antibodies. Also useful for immune checkpoint co-stimulatory assay when co-cultured with HVEM/NF-κB-luciferase/Jurkat reporter cell line (BPS Bioscience).
Background: LIGHT (TNFSF14) is a key component of the communication system that controls the responses of T-Cells. LIGHT activates two cell surface receptors, the Herpesvirus Entry Mediator (HVEM) and the Lymphotoxin-beta Receptor (LTβR). The LIGHT-HVEM axis is an important costimulatory pathway for T cells, it has been shown to activate NF-κB; LIGHT/HVEM pair are co-stimulatory immune checkpoint molecules for cancer immunotherapy, LIGHT expressing cells have been shown to be more potent than the soluble LIGHT for activating HVEM expressed on T cell surface.
Description: Recombinant stable clonal CHO cell line constitutively expressing full length human LIGHT protein, also known as TNFSF14, (Genbank #NM_003807). Surface expression is confirmed by flow cytometry.
