Description: HMGB1 was originally discovered as an essential DNA-binding protein for regulating p53, NF-kappaB and other important proteins. It is secreted from activated dentric cells, macrophage and nectrotic cells, and acts as a ligand for RAGE, TLR-2 and TLR-4 expressed on surrounding cells. As a result, HMGB1 activates Rac, CDC42 and NF-kappaB inducing localized innate immunity of damaged tissue, tissue regeneration by recruitment of stem cells and hemostasis by induction of tissue factor expression. HMGB1 is also a causative agent of various diseases as it causes localized inflammation such as arteriosclerosis, chronic rheumatoid arthritis and nephritis. Anti-HMGB1, mAb (recombinant) (Giby-1-4) (Biotin) 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.

Description: Human CD279 (PD-1; Programmed Cell Death 1) is a 55 kD Ig superfamily member with similarity to CD28 and CD152 (CTLA-4). It is expressed on activated T and B and myeloid cells and engagement by its ligands PD-L1 (CD274; B7-H1) or PD-L2 (B7-DC) can inhibit proliferation and cytokine expression. In mice blockade of PD-1 ligand interaction has been used to augment T cell anti-cancer responses.

Description: TIE-2 acts as cell-surface receptor for ANGPT1, ANGPT2 and ANGPT4 and regulates angiogenesis, endothelial cell survival, proliferation, migration, adhesion and cell spreading, reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, but also maintenance of vascular quiescence. It has anti-inflammatory effects by preventing the leakage of proinflammatory plasma proteins and leukocytes from blood vessels. It is required for normal angiogenesis and heart development during embryogenesis and for post-natal hematopoiesis. After birth, it activates or inhibits angiogenesis, depending on the context. It inhibits angiogenesis and promotes vascular stability in quiescent vessels, where endothelial cells have tight contacts. In migrating endothelial cells that lack cell-cell adhesions, ANGT1 recruits TEK to contacts with the extracellular matrix, leading to the formation of focal adhesion complexes, activation of PTK2/FAK and of the downstream kinases MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1 and ultimately to the stimulation of sprouting angiogenesis.

Description: Podoplanin is expressed on glomerular epithelial cells (podocytes), type I lung alveolar cells, lymphatic endothelial cells and numerous tumors, including colorectal tumors, squamous cell carcinomas, testicular seminoma and brain tumors. Podoplanin is the ligand for C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2). Their association is dependent on sialic acid on O-glycans of podoplanin. Through its association with CLEC-2, podoplanin induces platelet aggregation and tumor metastasis. Podoplanin is also necessary for lymphatic vessel formation, normal lung cell proliferation and alveolus formation at birth.

Description: Procaspase-8 belongs to the family of caspases. Binding of FasL to Fas leads to formation of a receptor complex at the cellular membrane, which was named DISC. The DISC consists of oligomerized receptors, the DD-containing adaptor molecule FADD, procaspase-8, procaspase-10 and c-FLIP. The DISC structure provides a platform for the oligomerization of procaspase-8 that allows two procaspase-8 homodimers to be in the close proximity leading to the initial activation of procaspase-8. At the first cleavage step, the N-terminal p43/p41 and the C-terminal p30 cleavage products are generated. Importantly, these cleavage products already possess catalytic activity. At the second cleavage step, p43/p41 and p30 are processed to p10 and p20, respectively, which leads to the generation of the active caspase-8 heterotetramer (p20/p10)2.
