Flow Cytometry: TNF-alpha Antibody (6N1E7) - Azide Free [NBP2-27224] - Human PBMC were stimulated with PMA (10 ng/ml) and Ionomycin (500 ng/ml) for 5h in presence of Brefeldin A. At the end of stimulation, cells were surface stained with before testing with by intracellular staining. Fixed and permeabilized cells were incubated with 10 ul (0.5 ug) of TNF antibody (or ) for 30 minutes on ice. Lymphocyte population was gated for analysis to show TNF alpha positive T cells.
Blocking/Neutralizing: TNF-alpha Antibody (6N1E7) - Azide Free [NBP2-27224] - Validation of inhibitory effects of TNF alpha antibody on TNF alpha activity in the cell line. NF-kB/SEAPorter cells were plated in 96-well plate at 5 x 10^4 cells per well for 16 h. Cells were pre-incubated with TNF alpha antibody at 10 and 20 ug/ml for 1 hr, then treated with 10 ng/ml TNF alpha or 10 ng/ml PMA. After 24h, the secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) was analyzed using the SEAPorterAssay Kit .

Background: TNF-alpha

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha is a pro-inflammatory cytokine belonging to the TNF superfamily that is secreted by monocytes/macrophages, T cell, and natural killer (NK), among others (1). TNF-alpha is synthesized as a 233 amino acid (aa) transmembrane protein (mTNF-alpha) with a theoretical molecular weight (MW) of 26 kDa (1,2) that forms a homotrimer. mTNF-alpha is cleaved by TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) and released in its 157 aa, 17 kDa soluble form (sTNF-alpha) (1-5). Both mTNF-alpha and sTNF-alpha are capable of binding type 1 TNF receptors (TNFR1), whereas mTNF-alpha predominately binds to TNFR2 (1,2). TNF-alpha binding to its receptors causes receptor recruitment of adaptor proteins, formation of signaling complexes, and downstream signaling cascades (e.g. MAPK, NF-kappaB, and Caspase-8), leading to distinct cellular responses such as survival, proliferation, inflammation, necroptosis, and apoptosis (1-5).

TNF-alpha is critical for normal immune response; however, dysregulation of TNF-alpha production can result in various pathologies (2,4,5). Excessive production of pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6, and TNF-alpha has been implicated in an array of autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis (RA), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and psoriasis (2,4,5). Anti-TNF monoclonal antibodies, including Infliximab, and soluble TNFR have been approved for the treatment of autoimmune and TNF-mediated diseases (5). Additionally, data suggests that TNF inhibitors can be beneficial for treating patients experiencing immune-related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitor cancer treatment (6).
