CTLA-4 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

CTLA-4 protein inhibits T-cell responses by binding strongly to CD80 and CD86 receptors, surpassing CD28. This affinity allows CTLA-4 to effectively regulate T-cell activation and immune responses. The balance between inhibitory and stimulatory signals controlled by CTLA-4 and its ligands modulates T-cell-mediated immune reactions. CTLA-4 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant rat-derived CTLA-4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

CTLA-4 protein inhibits T-cell responses by binding strongly to CD80 and CD86 receptors, surpassing CD28. This affinity allows CTLA-4 to effectively regulate T-cell activation and immune responses. The balance between inhibitory and stimulatory signals controlled by CTLA-4 and its ligands modulates T-cell-mediated immune reactions. CTLA-4 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant rat-derived CTLA-4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.

Background

CTLA-4 protein operates as a key inhibitory receptor, serving as a major negative regulator in T-cell responses. Its pivotal role lies in the potent affinity CTLA-4 exhibits for its natural B7 family ligands, CD80 and CD86, a binding strength surpassing that of their counterpart stimulatory coreceptor, CD28. This heightened affinity enables CTLA-4 to effectively temper T-cell activation, forming a crucial component of the regulatory mechanisms governing immune responses. The nuanced balance between inhibitory and stimulatory signals orchestrated by CTLA-4 and its ligands plays a central role in modulating the intensity and duration of T-cell-mediated immune reactions.
