PD-L2 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc)

Programmed cell death 1 ligand 2 (Pdcd1lg2, Pd-l2, B7-DC) is a member of B7 family and a ligand of programmed cell death 1. Pdcd1lg2 negatively regulates activated T cell proliferation, interferon-gamma production and interleukin-10 production in a PDCD1-independent manner, or inhibits T-cell proliferation by blocking cell cycle progression and cytokine production by interacts with PDCD1, and consequently causes cancer growth and suppresses the immune system. PD-L2 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant rat-derived PD-L2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.

Programmed cell death 1 ligand 2 (Pdcd1lg2, Pd-l2, B7-DC) is a member of B7 family and a ligand of programmed cell death 1. Pdcd1lg2 is consist of one IgV and one IgC domain, and is involved in the costimulatory signal, negatively regulates activated T cell proliferation, interferon-gamma production and interleukin-10 production in a PDCD1-independent manner. Interaction of Pdcd1lg2 with PDCD1 inhibits T-cell proliferation by blocking cell cycle progression and cytokine production. The interaction of Pdcd1lg2 with PD-1 boosts tolerance of T-cells, induces an inhibitory effect on T-cell activation/proliferation, increases the conversion of T helper cells into Foxp3+ Treg cells, and prevents cytolysis of T cell in cancerous cells, and consequently causes cancer growth and suppresses the immune system. Pdcd1lg2 expresses chiefly on APCs such as non-hematopoietic tissues, myeloid dendritic cells, and macrophages, while Pdcd1lg is active in external side of plasma membrane and is a biomarker of pulmonary tuberculosis^[1][2][3][4].
