Human immunoglobulins are glycoproteins composed of two disulfide-bonded heavy (H) chain subunits, each of which is linked by interchain disulfide bonds to a light (L) chain forming a tetramolecular complex. There are five classes of immunoglobulins, designated IgG, IgA, IgM, IgD and IgE, which are defined by differences in the constant region of H chains. L chains are divided into kappa or lambda classifications based on structural antigenic differences. All classes of immunoglobulins have been found on the cell surface of B lymphocytes where they function as antigen receptors to elicit antigen-dependent proliferation and secretion of antigen specific soluble circulating antibodies.

Human CD137 ligand is a type II transmembrane protein constitutively expressed by monocytes, B cells neuroblastoma cells, and some activated T cells. The interaction of CD137 (4-1BB) and CD137L can supply a costimulatory signal to T cells through CD137. The interaction can also effect a reverse signal, inducing monocyte activation, or T cell inactivation and programmed death through CD137L.

Human CD272 (BTLA; B and T Lymphocyte Attenuator) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and has sequence homology to PD-1 and CTLA-4. It is expressed on T and B lymphocytes and other hemopoetic lineages. Engagement of this molecule by its ligand CD270 (HVEM) can downregulate activated T and B cell responses. CD272 levels on antigen specific CD8+ T cells have been reported to decrease in viral specific, but not melanoma specific activated lines. Polymorphism of the CD272 molecule has been linked to rheumatoid arthritis.

RpS3 is a component of the 40S ribosomal subunit and is an an essential but previously unkown subunit of NF-kappaB involved in the regulation of key genes in rapid cellular activation responses. RpS3 interacts with nm23-H1. The expression of rpS3 reduces the secretion of MMP-9 and the invasive metastatic potential in HT1080 cells. The phosphorylated ERK is reduced by the expression of rpS3.

Vaspin (Visceral adipose tissue-derived serpin; Serpin A12), a serine protease inhibitor (serpin), is an insulin-sensitizing adipocytokine that has been isolated from both visceral and subcutaneous white adipose tissue. Based on recent findings, vaspin is suggested to regulate immune responses and inflammation and was found to be correlated with various metabolic parameters. Vaspin may represent a novel biomarker for obesity and impaired insulin sensitivity and might serve as a new_x000D_ therapeutic target of metabolic syndrome.

Glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3; GSHPX3) is a selenium-dependent extracellular enzyme, protecting cells and enzymes from oxidative damage by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides and organic hydroperoxides. GPX3 is involved in inflammatory bowel disease, in asthma and in diabetes. The activity of GPX3 is significantly reduced in the plasma and tissue of cancer patients. Recently, GPX3 was suggested to serve as a molecular marker for the diagnosis of clear cell type ovarian adenocarcinoma.

Reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are formed in a variety of diseases such as atherosclerosis, inflammation, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Peroxinitrite (ONOO-) is known as a potent biological oxidant, which is formed via very fast reaction between nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide (O2-). Peroxinitrite can induce nitration of aromatic amino acids such as Tyr, Trp, Phe and His, which results in modulation of protein functions. To date, 6-nitrotryptophan (6-NO2-Trp) is shown to be one of the most stable and major peroxynitrite-modified amino acids, and growing evidences suggest that nitrotryptophan may play a significant role in the cellular regulation under nitrosative stress. This antibody is suitable for immunohistochemistry, western blotting and ELISA and may provide a powerful tool for the investigation of nitrosative stress inside living bodies.

Human CD66b (CEACAM8, CGMb, NCA-95, CD67) is a 95kD member of the Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) group. It is expressed on granulocytes and functions as an adhesion molecule. Similar to the CD66 a, c, and d isoforms, engagement of CD66b on neutrophils causes increased adhesion to endothelial cells. Crosslinking CD66b on neutrophils with antibodies triggers IL-8 release.

APRIL is a cytokine that belongs to the TNF superfamily and binds to TACI and BCMA. It is implicated in the regulation of tumor cell growth and is involved in monocyte/macrophage-mediated immunological processes. Anti-APRIL (mouse) Monoclonal Antibody (recombinant) (Blocking) (APRY-1-3) is an antibody developed by antibody phage display technology using a human naive antibody gene library. These libraries consist of scFv (single chain fragment variable) composed of VH (variable domain of the human immunoglobulin heavy chain) and VL (variable domain of the human immunoglobulin light chain) connected by a polypeptide linker. The antibody fragments are displayed on the surface of filamentous bacteriophage (M13). This scFv was selected by affinity selection on antigen in a process termed panning. Multiple rounds of panning are performed to enrich for antigen-specific scFv-phage. Monoclonal antibodies are subsequently identified by screening after each round of selection. The selected monoclonal scFv is cloned into an appropriate vector containing a Fc portion of interest and then produced in mammalian cells to generate an IgG like scFv-Fc fusion protein.

PARP-1 (ARTD1) is involved in the base excision repair (BER) pathway, by catalyzing the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of a limited number of acceptor proteins involved in chromatin architecture and in DNA metabolism. This modification follows DNA damages and appears as an obligatory step in a detection/signaling pathway leading to the reparation of DNA strand breaks. PARP-1 positively regulates the transcription of MTUS1 and negatively regulates the transcription of MTUS2/TIP150. It forms a complex with EEF1A1 and TXK that acts as a T-helper 1 (Th1) cell-specific transcription factor and binds the promoter of IFN-gamma to directly regulate its transcription, and is thus involved importantly in Th1 cytokine production.

IKK-gamma is the regulatory subunit of the IKK core complex which phosphorylates inhibitors of NF-kappaB, thus leading to the dissociation of the inhibitor/NF-kappaB complex and ultimately the degradation of the inhibitor. Its binding to scaffolding polyubiquitin seems to play a role in IKK activation by multiple signaling receptor pathways. IKK-gamma is also considered to be a mediator for TAX activation of NF-kappaB and it could be implicated in NF-kappaB-mediated protection from cytokine toxicity. It is essential for viral activation of IRF3 and is involved in TLR3- and IFIH1-mediated antiviral innate response.
