Bioactivity | Tremelimumab (Ticilimumab) is a fully humanized monoclonal antibody specific for cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and can be used for metastatic melanoma research[1]. |
Invitro | Tremelimumab (Ticilimumab) has a higher affinity for CTLA-4-Ig than for CD28-Ig and that the antibody is specific for cynomolgus monkeys and humans[1].Tremelimumab does not bind to human leukocyte FcγR and does not trigger the release of cytokines avoiding the cytokine release syndrome, but increases the IL-2 production upon stimulation with the staphylococcal enterotoxin A in a concentration-dependent manner[1].Tremelimumab enhances the IL-2 production in T-cells[1]. |
