CD137 (4-1BB) Monoclonal Antibody (17B5), PE, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Syrian Hamster Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen 12137183

Catalog No. 50-106-26

Description

Description: The 17B5 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD137, also known as 4-1BB, a member of the TNFR superfamily. CD137 is expressed as monomers, dimers, and tetramers on the surface of activated T cells around day 4-6 after activation through the TCR complex. Interaction of CD137 with its ligand, 4-1BBL, is reported to deliver a costimulatory signal important in the T-APC interaction. Recent data suggests CD317 is expressed on Tregs and may play a role in their proliferation. The monoclonal antibody 17B5 has strong antagonistic effect in in vitro functional assays. Applications Reported: The 17B5 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: The 17B5 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of activated mouse splenocytes cultures. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.25 μg per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. Excitation: 488-561 nm; Emission: 578 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser. Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered.

CD137, also known as TNFRSF9 or 4-1BB, is an inducible costimulatory molecule expressed mainly on activated T cells. Its ligand, known as 4-1BBL, is expressed on activated macrophages, mature B cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and myeloid progenitor cells. CD137 signaling leads to maintaining the survival of activated T cells and CD8+ memory T cells, and clonal expansion of T cells, but also to suppressing myelopoiesis and dendritic cell development. Triggered CD137 induces a cytokine release profile regulating peripheral monocyte survival. Soluble forms of CD137 may provide negative control mechanism for some immune responses.
