The PE-conjugated Mouse CD272 Monoclonal Antibody (PK18-6) is a cutting-edge tool designed for researchers studying CD272, an important immune-related molecule involved in the regulation of immune responses. This monoclonal antibody, specifically developed for use with mouse samples, offers high reactivity and precision in detecting CD272 protein expression. Validated for applications such as flow cytometry, this antibody provides researchers with a reliable means of identifying and analyzing CD272 in various cell types.CD272, also known as B- and T-lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA), is a key immune checkpoint receptor that plays a crucial role in modulating immune responses.
By inhibiting immune cell activation, CD272 contributes to the regulation of immune tolerance and autoimmunity. Its significance in immune regulation makes it a promising target for research in fields such as immunology and cancer biology. Understanding the function of CD272 is essential for developing novel therapeutic strategies aimed at manipulating immune responses and potentially treating immune-related disorders such as cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Background:
CD272, also known as B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA), is an Ig superfamily co-inhitory receptor with structural similarity to programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and CTLA-4. BTLA is expressed on B cells, T cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, NKT cells, and NK cells. Engagement of BTLA by its ligand herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) is critical for negatively regulating immune response. The absence of BTLA with HVEM inhibitory interactions leads to increased experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis severity, enhanced rejection of partially mismatched allografts, an increased CD8+ memory T cell population, increased severity of colitis, and reduced effectiveness of T regulatory cells. BTLA plays an important role in the induction of peripheral tolerance of both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in vivo. Tolerant T cells have significantly higher expression of BTLA compared with effectors and naïve T cells. BTLA may cooperate with CTLA-4 and PD-1 to control T cell tolerance and autoimmunity. It was reported that BTLA may regulate T cell function by binding to B7-H4, but further studies are needed to confirm. The existence of three distinct BTLA alleles has been reported.
