BCMA/TNFRSF17 蛋白, Human (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi)

B Cell Maturation Antigen (BCMA) also referred to as TNFRSF17 or CD269, is a transmembrane glycoprotein member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily. BCMA is used as a biomarker for Multiple myeloma (MM). BCMA mainly plays an important role in B cells for their proliferation, survival and also differentiates them into plasma cells^[1]. BCMA/TNFRSF17 Protein, Human (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi) is a biotinylated recombinant protein with a C-Terminal Avi label and a C-Terminal His label, It consists of 54 amino acids (M1-A54) and is produced in HEK293 cells.

BCMA 优先由成熟 B 淋巴细胞表达，在造血干细胞或非造血组织中表达最少^[1]。BCMA 几乎只在浆母细胞和 PC 上表达^[2]。
人 BCMA 蛋白的氨基酸序列与小鼠 BCMA 蛋白同源性较低。
BCMA 是一个 184 个氨基酸20.2-kDa III 型跨膜糖蛋白，其胞外 N 末端含有 6 个半胱氨酸的保守基序。BCMA 有两种激动剂配体：增殖诱导配体 (APRIL) 和 B 细胞激活因子 (BAFF)。配体与 BCMA 结合后，激活 B 细胞 (NF-κβ)、大鼠肉瘤/丝裂原激活蛋白激酶 (RAS/MAPK) 和磷酸肌醇 3 激酶蛋白激酶 B/Akt (PI3K-PKB/Akt)信号通路。这些途径通过调节细胞周期检查点来刺激增殖，通过上调抗凋亡蛋白来提高存活率，并产生细胞粘附分子、血管生成因子和免疫抑制分子^[2]。
BCMA可作为一种有前途的抗原，针对 MM 患者使用多种免疫疗法（包括 CART 细胞）进行靶向治疗^[3]。BCMA 显着降低小鼠血浆 IgA、IgG 和 IgM 水平以及脾脏 Ig 重链 mRNA 水平^[4]。在 BCMA−/− 小鼠中，PC 的长期存活受到损害，但缺乏 BCMA 对短寿命的 PC、B 细胞发育或早期体液免疫反应没有影响，并且脾结构和生发中心在这些 BCMA 缺陷小鼠^[5]。BCMA 过表达可显着促进小鼠模型中异种移植 MM 细胞的体内生长^[6]。

BCMA (human; 10000 ng/mL; 24 h) blocks the activity of ARI2m cells and inhibits the IFNγ production^[3].

BCMA (human; 100 µg; i.p.; on days -4, -2, 0, 2, and 4) decreases the IgA and IgM levels in C57 Bl/6 mice^[4].
