Antibody DetailsProduct DetailsReactive Species Human Host Species Human Expression Host HEK-293 Cells FC Effector Activity Muted Immunogen Unknown Product Concentration ≥ 5.0 mg/ml Endotoxin Level ≤ 1.0 EU/mg as determined by the LAL method Purity ≥95% by SDS Page ⋅ ≥95% monomer by analytical SEC Formulation This biosimilar antibody is aseptically packaged and formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (150 mM NaCl) PBS pH 7.2 - 7.4 with no carrier protein, potassium, calcium or preservatives added. Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration. State of Matter Liquid Product Preparation Recombinant biosimilar antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using only in vitro protein free cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates. Pathogen Testing To protect mouse colonies from infection by pathogens and to assure that experimental preclinical data is not affected by such pathogens, all of Leinco’s recombinant biosimilar antibodies are tested and guaranteed to be negative for all pathogens in the IDEXX IMPACT I Mouse Profile. Storage and Handling Functional grade biosimilar antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at -80°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles. Regulatory Status Research Use Only Country of Origin USA Shipping 2 – 8° C Wet Ice Additional Applications Reported In Literature ? B, ELISA, FA Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change. DescriptionDescriptionSpecificity This non-therapeutic biosimilar antibody uses the same variable region sequence as
the therapeutic antibody Dupilumab. REGN668 (Dupilumab) is an antagonist of human IL-4Rα,
the α subunit of the IL-4 receptor. Background IL-4R is a heterodimeric receptor composed of a common subunit (IL-4Rα) that pairs with distinct auxiliary subunits1 to create Type I and Type II IL-4 receptors as well as the IL-13 receptor system2. The IL-4/IL-13/IL-4R axis promotes T helper 2 (Th2) cell differentiation and mediates the pro-allergic adaptive immune response1. The IL‐4R pathway is central to allergic inflammation via its ligands IL-4 and IL-131, driving disease progression in atopic and allergic diseases3. IL‐4R activates effector pathways in target tissues where disease occurs1. Immunotherapies targeting IL-4R are being sought to interrupt the allergic inflammatory response. REGN668 (Dupilumab) selectively binds to IL-4Rα and inhibits the signaling of type 2 (Th2) cytokines IL-4 and IL-13, thereby inhibiting the release of proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and IgE as well as reducing key Th2-associated biomarkers3. An increase in serum levels of IL-4 and IL-13 is seen following blockade. Additionally, dupilumab inhibits IgE production by ex vivo B cells induced by IL-4 treatment 1. Since IL-4Rα is targeted, dupilumab can block both Type I and Type II receptors. However, based on clinical data, dupilumab may not equally inhibit both receptor types1. IL-4 signaling is inhibited via the Type I receptor. While both IL-4 and IL13 signaling are inhibited via the Type II receptor. Dupilumab has been approved for the treatment of atopic dermatitis and eosinophilic asthma. Antigen Distribution Type I IL-4R is composed of IL-4Rα and the γc chain and is expressed on
hematopoietic cells. Type II IL-4R is composed of IL-4Rα and IL-13Rα1 and is expressed on
both hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells, such as airway epithelium. Ligand/Receptor IL-4, IL-13 NCBI Gene Bank ID UniProt.org Research Area Apoptosis . Cell Biology . Cell Death . Immunology .
