Scientific Data
Detection of Human OX40/TNFRSF4 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of human T regulatory cells (Tregs) and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) untreated (-) or treated (+) with 1 µg/mL PHA for 5 days. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human OX40/TNFRSF4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3388) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for OX40/TNFRSF4 at approximately 45 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of OX40/TNFRSF4 in Human T Cells by Flow Cytometry. Human T cells were treated for 3-5 days with 1 µg/mL PHA then stained with Sheep Anti-Human OX40/ TNFRSF4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3388, filled histogram) or control antibody (Catalog # 5-001-A, open histogram), followed by NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # NL010).
OX40/TNFRSF4 in Human Tonsil. OX40/TNFRSF4 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human tonsil using Sheep Anti-Human OX40/TNFRSF4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3388) at 3 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Sheep IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC006). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to plasma membrane.

CXCL8/IL-8 Secretion Induced by OX40L/TNFSF4 and Neutralization by Human OX40/TNFRSF4 Antibody. Recombinant Human OX40L/TNFSF4 (Catalog # 1054-OX) stimulates CXCL8/IL-8 secretion in the HT1080 human fibrosarcoma cell line transfected with human OX40/TNFRSF4 in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by the Human CXCL8/IL-8 Quantikine ELISA Kit (Catalog # D8000C). CXCL8/Il-8 Secretion elicited by Recombinant Human OX40L/TNFSF4 (10 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Sheep Anti-Human OX40/TNFRSF4 Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3388). The ND50 is typically 0.025-0.16 µg/mL.

Background: OX40/TNFRSF4
OX40 (CD134; TNFRSF4) is a T cell costimulatory molecule of the TNF receptor superfamily that coordinates with other membrane-bound costimulators such as CD28, CD40, CD30, CD27 and 4-1BB (1-3). OX40 is expressed on naïve CD4 + T cells only after engagement of the TCR by antigen presenting cells (APC; dendritic and B cells), and costimulation by CD40/CD40 ligand and CD28/B7. It is maximal at 2-5 days post activation, or 4 hours post reactivation of memory T cells (3-6). Human OX40 is a 48 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein with a 28 amino acid (aa) signal sequence, a 185 aa extracellular domain (ECD) that has four TNFR-Cys repeats and an O-glycosylated hinge region, a 20 aa transmembrane segment, and a 41 aa cytoplasmic domain (3). The ECD of human OX40 shows 71%, 68%, 67%, 64% and 64% aa identity with feline, canine, rabbit, mouse and rat OX40 ECD, respectively. Engagement of OX40 on activated CD4 + T cells by OX40 ligand on activated dendritic cells promotes T cell survival and proliferation, prolongs the immune response, and enhances the number of cells making the transition from effector to memory T cells (1-6). OX40 signal transduction includes binding TNF receptor-associated factors (TRAFs), and activating NF kappa B and PI3 kinase to enhance expression of cytokines, antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family members, survivin and the chemokine receptor CXCR5 (5-8). CXCR5 promotes T cell migration to germinal centers to deliver B cell help (5). Studies using knockout or transgenic mice, and agonistic or blocking antibodies, show that OX40/OX40L interaction is critical for establishing or reactivating memory T cells and breaking immune tolerance (9). Blockade of OX40 engagement is efficacious in animal models of allergic airway inflammation, graft-versus-host disease and autoimmune disease (10-14).
