Vector Labs Ab02358-2.0-VXM Anti-CD25 [2E4], Mouse IgG2a, kappa (5 mg) Centrifuge Bundle Savings at Sycamore Life Sciences

Description

Product Class: VivopureX
Clone ID: 2E4
Synonyms: IL-2-RA; Interleukin-2 receptor subunit alpha; IL-2 receptor subunit alpha; IL-2R subunit alpha; IL2-RA; p55
Amount: 5 mg
Application Codes Clone: FC; depletion
Shipping Temperature: Wet Ice
Buffer Composition: PBS only.
Original Format: IgG1
Storage Temperature: All VivopureX products are formulated in PBS only without addition of preservatives. To ensure optimal storage and prevent microbial contamination, only open and dispense under sterile conditions. Store at 4⁰C for up to 3 months. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20⁰C.
Chimeric Use Statement: This reformatted mouse antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
Specificity Statement: 2E4 recognizes mouse CD25. This epitope is distinct from the IL-2 binding site and does not block binding of IL-2 to CD25. This antibody binds the same or overlapping epitope as 7D4 (Ab02216) but different than Ab01107. Murine CD25 is a 55 kDa interleukin-2 receptor alpha chain (IL-2R alpha). CD25 is expressed by early progenitors of the T and B lineage as well as by activated mature T and B lymphocytes. By itself, CD25 binds IL-2 only with low affinity. However, CD25 associates with CD122 (IL-2 receptor beta chain) and CD132 (common gamma chain) to form the high affinity IL-2 receptor.
Application Notes: 2E4 is a non-IL-2 blocking anti-CD25 antibody. The variable fragment (Fv) of this antibody conjugated to a 38-kDa portion of Pseudomonas exotoxin A exhibited exceptional ability to induce tumor rejection and lasting antitumor immunitiy in mice making it a promising canditate in the immunotherapy research and developemnt (Onda et al., 2019; pmid: 30760587). This 2E4 Fv-based CD25-specific recombinant immunotoxin (RIT) was injected into three different mouse tumor models and brought about complete regressions of the majority of them leadinig, in many cases, to immunity against tumors' reinjections and cross-tumor type immunity (Onda et al., 2019; pmid: 30760587). Finally, it was demonstrated that this immunotoxin (RIT) caused significant depletion of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the tumor environment but, importantly, not in the spleen; at the same time, the number of effector, cytotoxic CD8 cells in the tumor increased what would suggest the possible antitumour mechanism of this immunotoxin (Onda et al., 2019; pmid: 30760587). Additionally, 2E4 can be used in flow cytometric analyses; for instance, it has been used to perform phenotyping of lymphocytes as a part of a wider panel of antibodies (Alexander et al., 2008; pmid: 18824594).
