Protein Concentration25µg size is bottled at 0.2mg/mL concentration. 100 µg size is supplied at a lot-specific concentration.
Storage and HandlingBriefly centrifuge the vial upon receipt. An unopened vial can be stored at 4°C for up to 2 weeks, or at -20°C or below for up to six months. The protein may be further diluted to 0.1 mg/mL using 0.22 µm-filtered PBS buffer (pH 7.4). For long-term storage, the diluted stock solution should be aliquoted and stored at ≤ –70°C to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. If additional dilution is required, carrier proteins such as FBS or BSA should be added to maintain protein stability.

Background Information


B7-1, also known as CD80, is a cell surface glycoprotein in the immunoglobulin superfamily, expressed on activated B cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. It interacts with the costimulatory receptors CD28 and CTLA-4 on T cells, playing a pivotal role in regulating T cell activation, tolerance, cytokine production, and the generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Through its interactions with CD28 and CTLA-4, CD80 is involved in both enhancing and inhibiting immune responses, thereby maintaining immune balance. This B7/CD28/CTLA-4 pathway is crucial for controlling immune function and is considered a promising target for therapeutic interventions in autoimmune diseases and cancer.
