Background
OX40 (CD134) is a co-stimulatory receptor expressed on the surface of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells 24 to 48 hours after activation. Binding of OX40 to its ligand, OX40L (CD252), present on dendritic cells, potentiates T cell survival and increases cytokine production. OX40 has been shown to activate NF-kappaB-mediated memory cell generation through its interaction with adaptor proteins TRAF2 and TRAF5. OX40 has a critical role in the maintenance of an immune response beyond the first few days and onwards to a memory response.
Application
OX40 binding molecule (such as anti-OX40 antibody) screening and profiling in a cellular context
