Bioactivity | HVEM(14-39) is a B- and T-lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) peptide inhibitor. HVEM (14-39) can be combined with BTLA with a KD of 0.102 μM. HVEM(14-39) enhances the activation and proliferation of T cells by regulating the expression of BTLA and HVEM in T cells, and promotes the transformation of cells into effector memory T cells. HVEM(14-39) inhibits tumor cell proliferation and promotes late apoptosis. HVEM(14-39) has immunomodulatory effects and can be used in the study of cancer[1]. |
