Anti-Mouse CD223 (LAG-3) In Vivo Antibody - Ultra Low Endotoxin
Introducing the Anti-Mouse CD223 (LAG-3) In Vivo Antibody - Ultra Low Endotoxin from Assay Genie, a highly specific monoclonal antibody designed for in vivo research applications. This antibody targets the CD223 (LAG-3) protein, which is crucial in regulating immune responses, making it ideal for studies in immunology and related fields.
With an isotype of rat IgG1, it ensures high purity and ultra-low endotoxin levels (<0.01 EU/μg), perfect for in vivo experiments, flow cytometry, and other immunological assays. Available in various sizes, it is formulated in phosphate-buffered saline for enhanced stability and efficacy. Enhance your research with this reliable and versatile antibody.
CD223 (also known as LAG-3) is an immune checkpoint receptor found on the surface of activated T cells, natural killer cells, and regulatory T cells (Tregs). It is involved in the negative regulation of T-cell proliferation, activation, and homeostasis, playing a significant role in maintaining immune tolerance and preventing autoimmunity. This makes it a valuable target in cancer immunotherapy research and autoimmune disease studies.

LAG-3 is a 70-kD, type-I transmembrane glycoprotein within the Ig superfamily with four extracellular Ig-like domains (D1 to D4) and is structurally homologous to CD4. LAG-3 is a cell surface molecule with various biologic effects on T cell function. It has been reported to be involved in Treg suppressive function. It negatively regulates cellular proliferation, activation, and homeostasis of T cells, in a similar manner to CTLA-4 and PD-1. Human LAG-3 is approximately 70% homologous with murine LAG3, and it binds MHC class II molecules with higher affinity than CD4. As an immune checkpoint receptor, LAG-3 is the target of various drug development programs seeking to expand treatments for cancer and autoimmune disorders. In its soluble form, LAG-3 is being developed as a cancer drug. As an antagonist, LAG-3 antibody can activate T effector cells via the downregulation of the LAG-3 inhibiting signal into pre-activated LAG-3+ cells. In addition, it can inhibit antigen-specific Treg suppressive activity. As an agonist antibody, it can be used to diminish an autoimmune response and is currently being investigated for the treatment of plaque psoriasis.
