Conjugation-ready, carrier free format available for antibody clone 28-8 - ab228413 . Antibody clone 28-8 is also available pre-conjugated to a variety of labels for your convenience - HRP, PE, Alexa Fluor® 555, Alexa Fluor® 568, Alexa Fluor® 594, FITC ( ab209961 , ab209962 , ab213358 , ab213359 , ab213360 , ab224027 ). PD-L1 (Programmed Death-Ligand 1) is a protein that plays a significant role in oncology, particularly in the immune response to cancer. It is expressed on the surface of cancer cells and interacts with the PD-1 receptor on T-cells, effectively inhibiting the immune system's ability to attack the tumor. This interaction is a key target for immunotherapy drugs, such as checkpoint inhibitors, which block the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, allowing the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. FURTHER INFORMATION ON POSITIVE CONTROLS ( Chinese version ) Tissue: - Tonsil - with hyperreactive changes. Screening of hyper-reactive tonsils is recommended to find tonsil with the highest expression of PD-L1 in crypt epithelium, macrophages homing the germinal centers and interfollicular mononuclear leukocytes. - Tumor tissues - prescreened for positive tumor and inflammatory infiltrates. PD-L1 expression varies by tumor type so screening is recommended to find positive and negative tumor controls. - The following publication is useful for finding suitable tumor types for PD-L1 expression: http://www.immunotherapyofcancer.org/content/1/S1/P53 - Note: Look for specimens with high numbers of inflammatory macrophages and mononuclear leukocytes. Cell Lines: - Positive controls: B-CPAP (high), ES-2 (medium), HCC70 (low). Primary antibody negative control: Recombinant Rabbit IgG isotype control antibody, ab172730 . Recombinant protein positive control: Recombinant human PD-L1 protein, ab167713 . Immunohistochemistry usage: For IHC usage on FFPE tissues, we recommend using PD-L1 IHC panel ab236676 , which contains PD-L1 antibody clone 28-8 (ab205921), HIER antigen retrieval reagent ( ab208572 ) and IHC detection kit HRP/DAB ( ab209101 ). Western blot usage: For clone 28-8, it is recommended to use Odyssey system. This system has the advantages of a wider dynamic range and less background than chemiluminescence. This PD-L1 antibody [28-8] has been used as detector antibody in Human PD-L1 SimpleStep ELISA ® kit: ab214565 and ab277712 . To support you in your biomarker discovery and validation studies, we offer a comprehensive suite of solutions including high quality, validated recombinant antibodies and assay kits. Patented technology Our RabMAb ® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb ® patents .

Scientific Background

Target data Plays a critical role in induction and maintenance of immune tolerance to self (PubMed : 11015443, PubMed : 28813410, PubMed : 28813417, PubMed : 31399419). As a ligand for the inhibitory receptor PDCD1/PD-1, modulates the activation threshold of T-cells and limits T-cell effector response (PubMed : 11015443, PubMed : 28813410, PubMed : 28813417, PubMed : 36727298). Through a yet unknown activating receptor, may costimulate T-cell subsets that predominantly produce interleukin-10 (IL10) (PubMed : 10581077). Can also act as a transcription coactivator : in response to hypoxia, translocates into the nucleus via its interaction with phosphorylated STAT3 and promotes transcription of GSDMC, leading to pyroptosis (PubMed : 32929201).. The PDCD1-mediated inhibitory pathway is exploited by tumors to attenuate anti-tumor immunity and escape destruction by the immune system, thereby facilitating tumor survival (PubMed : 28813410, PubMed : 28813417). The interaction with PDCD1/PD-1 inhibits cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) effector function (By similarity). The blockage of the PDCD1-mediated pathway results in the reversal of the exhausted T-cell phenotype and the normalization of the anti-tumor response, providing a rationale for cancer immunotherapy (By similarity).
