Product Specifications

Immunogen

This antibody was raised by immunising LOU rats with soluble recombinant 4-1BB Ligand/TNFSF9:Fc fusion protein.

Specificity

This antibody is specific for 4-1BB ligand (also known as CD137 ligand), which is a member of the TNF superfamily and is a type II membrane protein. 4-1BB ligand is a co-stimulatory molecule that is expressed on antigen presenting cells (DCs, monocytes/macrophages, B cells) and is upregulated upon activation of these cells. Both of the 4-1BB ligand and its receptor, TNFRSF9/4-1BB, are involved in the antigen presentation process and in the generation of cytotoxic T cells. In direct ELISAs, no cross-reactivity with recombinant human RELT is observed.

The nuclear stain is DAPI (blue). Panels show from left-right, top-bottom NBP3-11986, DAPI, merged channels and an isotype control. The isotype control was an unknown specificity antibody followed by staining with Alexa Fluor(R) 488 secondary antibody.

Background: 4-1BB Ligand/TNFSF9

CD137 exists on the cell surface as a monomer with a molecular mass of 30 kDa and as a dimer of 55 kDa. Human and mouse CD137 share 60% amino acid identity. CD137 (4-1BB), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the cell surface of activated splenic T cells and thymocytes. The functions of CD137 in T lymphocytes include regulating activation, proliferation and apoptosis. CD137 and CD28 are costimulatory molecules of T cell activation. Costimulatory molecules are important in initiating anti-tumor immune responses. CD137 plays an important role in regulating T-cell-dependent immune responses. Expression of CD137 correlates negatively with lymphocyte proliferation and positively with the degree of activation-induced cell death caused by mitogen over stimulation. In monocytes, CD137 induces activation, promotes adherence and prolongs survival.
