Background Information


Human CD134, also known as OX40 or TNFRSF4, is a co-stimulatory immune checkpoint receptor expressed primarily on activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, as well as subsets of regulatory T cells. It belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily and is upregulated after T-cell receptor engagement. Structurally, CD134 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein containing multiple extracellular cysteine-rich domains, a single transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic tail that recruits TRAF adaptor proteins to initiate downstream NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways that promote T-cell survival and proliferation.

CD134 binds its cognate ligand CD252 (OX40L), which is expressed on antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells, B cells, and activated endothelial cells. Ligand engagement stabilizes T-cell activation, enhances effector cytokine production, and supports memory T-cell formation. In disease, OX40 signaling contributes to chronic inflammation and autoimmunity when dysregulated, but is also essential for effective anti-viral and anti-tumor immune responses. Overexpression of OX40/OX40L axis activity has been observed in several cancers, where it can paradoxically reflect ongoing immune activation yet insufficient tumor clearance.

Ivuxolimab is an investigational monoclonal antibody targeting human CD134 (OX40). It is designed to activate OX40 signaling, enhancing effector T-cell responses and anti-tumor immunity while modulating regulatory T-cell suppression in tumors. Clinically, OX40 agonism is studied in cancer immunotherapy, often combined with PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors to improve durable immune responses in clinical research settings and translational studies ongoing.

Frequently Asked Questions


How do I determine the optimal antibody concentration/titer for my experiment?
We recommend titrating each new antibody lot on your own cell type and instrument, since optimal concentration depends on cell density, target expression level, and cytometer sensitivity. Suggested starting dilutions or test sizes (e.g., µg or µl per 10^6 cells) are provided on the product page as a starting reference point, not a fixed requirement.

Can these antibodies be used for intracellular or intranuclear staining, or only surface staining?
Intended use (surface, intracellular, or both) is specified per product, indicated under Application. The appropriate Related Protocol is linked for each product. If you need to detect both surface and intracellular markers in the same panel, confirm each antibody's compatibility with your fixation/permeabilization protocol before combining them.

What controls should I use alongside these antibodies?
Matched isotype controls (same host species, isotype, and conjugate) are available for most clones to help distinguish specific binding from background/non-specific staining and are linked on each product page. Unstained, single-color compensation, and fluorescence-minus-one (FMO) controls are also recommended, especially for multicolor panel design.

Can I combine InnoCyto Flow Cytometry antibodies into a multicolor panel?
Yes — antibodies across our catalog are designed to be panel-compatible, and conjugate options are offered specifically to support multiplexing. When building a panel, pair bright fluorophores with low-expression targets, avoid excessive spectral overlap, and confirm compensation is set up correctly for your specific fluorochrome combination. Use our Panel Builder to simplify the process.
