Product Specs

Introduction
TNFRSF14, a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, is a type I transmembrane protein. It is expressed in various immune cells like peripheral blood T cells, B cells, monocytes and tissues rich in lymphoid cells. TNFRSF14 acts as a co-stimulatory factor for activating lymphoid cells and helps in preventing herpesvirus infection. Additionally, it promotes the proliferation of T cells and induces apoptosis in various tumor cells.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Expression

HVEM is broadly expressed on various immune cells, including T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, monocytes, and immature dendritic cells. It is also found in several non-hematopoietic tissues such as the liver, kidney, and lung . The recombinant form of HVEM, known as HVEM-Fc, is produced in Sf9 insect cells and consists of 146 amino acids (L39-K184) .

Functional Interactions

HVEM interacts with multiple ligands, including:

  • LIGHT (TNFSF14): This interaction forms a hexameric complex that recruits and retains effector cells, leading to the activation of NK cells and the production of large amounts of IFN-γ and GM-CSF .
  • BTLA (B- and T-lymphocyte attenuator): This interaction suppresses immune responses by inhibiting T- and B-lymphocyte activation and proliferation .
  • CD160: This interaction also inhibits T- and B-lymphocyte activation and proliferation .
  • HSV-gD (Herpes Simplex Virus glycoprotein D): This interaction promotes HSV infection in target cells .
Biological Activity

HVEM-Fc exhibits significant biological activity, including:

  • Proinflammatory and Survival Signals: When engaged by BTLA or LIGHT, HVEM delivers proinflammatory and survival signals, stimulating lymphocyte proliferation and activation, and inducing inflammatory reactions .
  • Inhibitory Signals: When bound to CD160 and BTLA, HVEM inhibits T- and B-lymphocyte activation and proliferation .
Applications

HVEM-Fc is used extensively in research to study immune regulation and the behavior of lymphocytes. It is also utilized in assays to measure its binding interactions with various ligands .

Production and Stability

HVEM-Fc is produced in Sf9 insect cells and is typically lyophilized after extensive dialysis against PBS. Upon reconstitution, it remains stable for up to 1 week at 4°C or up to 3 months at -20°C. For long-term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein, such as 0.1% BSA, to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles .
