OX40/TNFRSF4 蛋白, Human (HEK293, His-Avi)

OX40 (TNFRSF4), is a receptor for OX40 Ligand. OX40 is preferentially expressed by T cells. OX40 can be activated by OX40 Ligand, thereby functioning as a T cell co-stimulatory molecule. The OX40-OX40 Ligand interaction promotes effector T-cell survival and effectively induces memory T-cell generation, as well as enhances the helper function of Tfh for B cells, and also promotes the differentiation and maturation of DCs^[1][2]. OX40/TNFRSF4 Protein, Human (HEK293, His-Avi) is a recombinant human OX40 (L29-A216) with C-terminal Avi and His tag, which is produced in HEK293.

OX40 (TNFRSF4) 是 TNFR 超家族的成员，是 OX40 配体的受体。OX40优先由T细胞表达，但也在自然杀伤T细胞、自然杀伤细胞、中性粒细胞和人气道平滑肌细胞中发现。人 OX40 与小鼠和大鼠的氨基酸序列同一性<30%。小鼠 OX40 与大鼠^[1]有 90% aa 序列同一性。
OX40 配体可以激活 OX40，从而起到 T 细胞共刺激分子的作用。OX40-OX40配体相互作用促进效应T细胞存活并有效诱导记忆T细胞生成，增强Tfh对B细胞的辅助功能，并促进DC的分化和成熟^{[1]< /sup>[2]}。
OX40配体与OX40之间的相互作用对于抗原特异性记忆T细胞的产生至关重要，并诱导宿主抗肿瘤免疫^[3]。但 OX40 和 OX40L 的过度上调可能会导致 Tfh 细胞异常激活和自身抗体过度产生，从而导致自身免疫性疾病^[1]。

OX4 increases expression of RANTES protein in HUVECs^[4].
