VISTA Monoclonal Antibody (MH5A), PerCP-eFluor™ 710, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Armenian Hamster Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen 46591982

Catalog No. 46-591-982

Description

The MAb MH5A reacts with a homolog of PD-1 (PD-1H) also known as VISTA. PD-1H is a 309 aa type I transmembrane protein that belongs to the CD28 superfamily. This cell surface receptor is expressed on nearly all hematopoietic cells except B cells. VISTA negatively regulates T cell responses by suppressing early TCR activation, inhibiting cell proliferation, and suppressing TH1 cytokine production. The MH5A antibody has been reported to inhibit T cell infiltration in graft-versus-host disease mouse models.

VISTA (V-domain Ig containing suppressor of T-cell activation), also known as B7-H5 or PD-1H, is a product of the VSIR gene. Although VISTA bears sequence homology to PD-L1 it has a different expression pattern. In both mouse and humans, VISTA is expressed predominantly on hematopoietic cells with the highest densities on myeloid cells, and lower levels on T cells. It is usually absent on B cells. VISTA expressed by antigen presenting cells has been shown to directly suppress proliferation and cytokine production of CD4 and CD8 T cells, making it a target for cancer immunotherapy. The reported ligands of VISTA include CD28H, VSIG-3 and VSIG-8.
