Recombinant CHO-K1 cells constitutively expressing human CD70 (also known as Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 7, TNFSF7, CD27 Ligand, Ki-24 antigen, CD27-L, and CD27LG; GenBank accession #NM_001252).
Mycoplasma testing: This cell line has been screened using the MycoAlert Mycoplasma Detection Kit (Lonza #LT07-118) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma contamination.
Host Species: hamster
Supplied as Each vial contains ~2 x 10^6 cells in 1 ml of 10% DMSO
Background
CD70, also known as TNFSF7, is a cytokine which binds to CD27. CD70 is involved in T-cell activation and induces the proliferation of costimulated T-cells. Moreover, TNFSF7 enhances the generation of cytolytic T-cells. This cytokine is also reported to play a role in regulating B-cell activation, cytotoxic function of natural killer cells, and immunoglobulin synthesis. Diseases associated with CD70 include acute myocarditis, arthritis, and other inflammatory disorders.
Application
This cell line is useful for CD70 binding assays, flow cytometry, or for screening for CD70 antibodies. Also useful for immune checkpoint co-stimulatory assay when co-cultured with CD27/NF-kappaB Reporter-Jurkat cell line (Biohippo #79509).
