Application: This product is for research use only. It is not suitable for human, diagnostic or therapeutic use. The anti-CD20-anti-CD3 Fc format bispecific antibody can be used for studying CD20+ cancer cell-mediated T cell activation.
Background: CD20 (MS4A1) is a glycosylated phosphoprotein expressed on the cell surface of B cells. Although the functional significance of CD20 is not clear, and CD20 has no known ligands, CD20 has been shown to regulate intracellular calcium levels. CD20 is a highly attractive target antigen for immunotherapy because it is expressed in more than 90% of patients with B-cell lymphoma. First approved in 1997, Rituximab (Rituxan) is a chimeric monoclonal antibody targeting CD20 and has been classified by the World Health Organization as an "Essential Medicine". Since then, additional monoclonal antibodies against CD20 have been approved or are being tested in clinical trials for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), follicular lymphoma, diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), rheumatoid arthritis, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, systemic lupus erythematosus, and myalgic encephalomyelitis (chronic fatigue syndrome).
Description: Anti-CD20-Anti-CD3 Fc format bispecific antibody is a purified recombinant human bispecific antibody with T cell Engager. This bispecific antibody has been tested for specific activity in the functional reporter assay using NFAT-luc reporter Jurkat cell line (BPS Bioscience #60621) in the presence of CD20-CHO cells (BPS Bioscience #79624-H).
