Product name: CD274 (PD-L1, B7-H1) Monoclonal Antibody (MIH1), Functional Grade, eBioscience™
Antibody type: Monoclonal
Antigen: Other
Description: Description: The MIH1 monoclonal antibody reacts with human B7-H1, also known as PD-L1. B7-H1, a member of the B7 family, has a predicted molecular weight of approximately 40 kDa and belongs to the Ig superfamily. B7-H1 is expressed on a majority of leukocytes. B7-H1 is a ligand for PD-1. Interaction of PD-1 with either PD-L1 (B7-H1) or PD-L2 (B7-DC) results in inhibition of T and B cell responses. MIH1 is reported to be a blocking antibody.
Antibody clone number: MIH1
Concentration: 1 mg/mL

Experimental details: FIGURE 1 Human Prostate Cancer Cell Lines Display Varying Expression of PD-L1 in Response to IFN-gamma Histograms representing PD-L1 surface expression as detected by flow cytometry in human prostate cancer cell lines with and without exposure to IFN-gamma. Open histograms represent cells stained with an isotype IgG1 antibody tagged with a matching PE fluorochrome. Shaded histograms represent PD-L1. Quantitative measurements reflect mean fluorescence index. LNCaP does not express PD-L1 at rest or in response to IFN-gamma. DU145 expresses PD-L1 at rest and has little response to IFN-gamma indicating an innate immune resistance phenotype. PC3 expresses PD-L1 at rest but robustly up-regulates this expression in response to IFN-gamma displaying a more classic adaptive immune resistance phenotype.
