Ox40L Antibody (G-14) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Ox40L in human samples through western blotting (WB). Ox40L, also known as gp34, is a type II membrane protein that plays a pivotal role in immune responses as a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily. Anti-Ox40L antibody (G-14) is crucial for studying interactions between dendritic cells and T cells, as well as T cell homing and B cell activation. The engagement of Ox40L with its receptor, Ox40, provides a potent costimulatory signal essential for the activation and proliferation of effector T cells. Notably, Ox40L is predominantly expressed on activated B cells, while its receptor, Ox40, is found on activated T cells, highlighting the importance of this interaction in regulating immune responses. The structural characteristics of Ox40L, including its lack of a signal peptide, underscore its role as a membrane-bound protein that is integral to the immune synapse formation. Understanding the dynamics of Ox40L and its interactions is vital for developing therapeutic strategies aimed at modulating immune responses in various diseases, including cancer and autoimmune disorders. Ox40L monoclonal antibody (G-14) is an essential tool for researchers investigating the complexities of T cell activation and the broader implications of immune regulation.
