TIM-3/HAVCR2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

T cell immunoglobulin mucin-3 is an inhibitory receptor, and inhibits T cell functions. TIM-3 regulates immune responses in autoimmunity and cancer. TIM-3 has multiple different ligands: galectin 9, phosphatidylserine (PtdSer), CEACAM1 and HMGB1. The TIM-3-ligand axis is critical in the pathogenesis of numerous conditions, including autoimmune diseases, infections, cancers, transplant rejection, and chronic inflammation. TIM-3/HAVCR2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived TIM-3/HAVCR2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

T cell immunoglobulin mucin-3 is an inhibitory receptor, and inhibits T cell functions. TIM-3 regulates immune responses in autoimmunity and cancer. TIM-3 has multiple different ligands: galectin 9, phosphatidylserine (PtdSer), CEACAM1 and HMGB1. The TIM-3-ligand axis is critical in the pathogenesis of numerous conditions, including autoimmune diseases, infections, cancers, transplant rejection, and chronic inflammation[1][2][3][4][5]. TIM-3/HAVCR2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived TIM-3/HAVCR2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

T cell immunoglobulin mucin-3 (TIM-3) belongs to the Ig superfamily. TIM-3 is usually expressed by multiple murine and human immune cell types. TIM-3 was first discovered on IFN-γ producing Th1 and Tc1 cells. TIM-3 acts as an inhibitory receptor, and inhibits T cell functions. TIM-3 is associated with the regulation of immune responses in autoimmunity and cancer[1][5].
TIM-3 has multiple different ligands: galectin 9, phosphatidylserine (PtdSer), CEACAM1 and HMGB1, and these ligands bind to different regions on the TIM3 extracellular immunoglobulin V domain. The TIM-3-ligand axis is critical in the pathogenesis of numerous conditions, including autoimmune diseases, infections, cancers, transplant rejection, and chronic inflammation. For example, the binding of TIM-3 with galectin-9 can downregulate Th1 responses[2][3][4]. Inaddition, dysregulation of Tim-3 expression is associated with autoimmune diseases[5].

Verified Bioactivity

1.Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Human Galectin 9-His at 10 μg/mL (100 μl/well) can bind Human TIM-3-His*: Biotinylated by NHS-biotin prior to testing and the EC50for the effect is 10.5 μg/mL.
2.Immobilized Anti-Human TIM-3 mAb at 2 μg/mL (100 μl/well) can bind TIM-3/HAVCR2, Human (HEK293, His). The ED50 of TIM-3/HAVCR2, Human (HEK293, His) is 5-25 ng/mL.
