Name :
Human OX40 Protein, ECD (Extracellular Domain), Fc-fusion, Recombinant

Description :
OX40, also known as CD134, ACT35, TXGP1L and TNFRSF4, is a single-pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein of the TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF). OX40 is regarded as a T cell co-stimulatory molecule that coordinates with other membrane­bound co-stimulators including CD28, CD40, CD30, CD27, and 4­1BB/CD137. OX40 is absent on naïve T cells and its expression is induced after engagement of the TCR by antigen presenting cells and co-stimulation by CD40/CD40 ligand and CD28/B7. OX40 was identified as the receptor for OX40 ligand/TNFSF4. OX40/OX40L-mediated signaling is critical for establishing or reactivating long-term T-cell immunity and breaking immune tolerance in malignancies, leading to a reactivation of anti-tumor immunity. Engagement of OX40 on activated T cells with OX40 ligand on dendritic cells promotes T cell survival and proliferation, prolongs the immune response, and enhances the transition from effector to memory T cells. OX40 also regulates cytokine production from T cells, antigen-presenting cells, natural killer cells, and natural killer T cells. Mutations in the OX40 gene are associated with immunodeficiency 16 (IMD16). Blockade of OX40 signaling with antibody or soluble receptor is efficacious in animal models of allergic airway inflammation, graft­versus­host disease and autoimmune disease. Conversely, stimulating OX40 with an agonistic antibody has shown therapeutic potential for cancer and infectious disease.
