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. Product Preparation Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using in vitro 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. Storage and Handling Functional grade preclinical 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 ≤ -70°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change. DescriptionDescriptionSpecificity Clone 9D9 recognizes an epitope on mouse CTLA-4. Background CTLA-4 is a 33 kD member of the Ig superfamily similar to CD28 in amino acid sequence, structure, and genomic organization. CTLA-4 is a protein receptor that functions as an immune checkpoint and downregulates immune responses. It is involved in the development of protective immunity and thymocyte regulation, in addition to the induction and maintenance of immunological tolerance. CTLA-4 has therapeutic potential both as an agonist to reduce immune activity, and an antagonist to increase immune activity. Antigen Distribution CTLA-4 is expressed on activated T and B lymphocytes. Ligand/Receptor CD80 (B7.1), CD86 (B7.2) NCBI Gene Bank ID UniProt.org Research Area Immunology . Inhibitory Molecules Leinco Antibody AdvisorPowered by AI: AI is experimental and still learning how to provide the best assistance. It may occasionally generate incorrect or incomplete responses. Please do not rely solely on its recommendations when making purchasing decisions or designing experiments. Clone 9D9 is a monoclonal antibody targeting mouse CTLA-4 (CD152) and is widely used in in vivo mouse studies as a surrogate for CTLA-4 checkpoint blockade, especially in cancer immunotherapy models.
Applications in in vivo mouse studies:
Researchers choose 9D9 when precise depletion of intratumoral Tregs and robust CTLA-4 blockade are necessary to study immune responses in preclinical mouse cancer models. The correct storage temperature for sterile packaged clone 9D9 is 2–8?°C for short-term storage (up to one month), and -20 to -70?°C for long-term storage (up to 12 months) as supplied. For most research purposes:
These guidelines presume the antibody is supplied without glycerol or other stabilizers; always consult the product datasheet for formulation-specific instructions. The product is typically shipped cold (with ice pack) and should be refrigerated immediately upon receipt for short-term, or frozen for long-term storage. In the literature, the 9D9 antibody is most commonly used for targeting mouse CTLA-4 (CD152) as a surrogate for CTLA-4 blockade studies in murine cancer models. Other antibodies and proteins frequently used together with 9D9, for comparison or combination therapy, include:
In summary, ipilimumab, tremelimumab, and their engineered variants (for murine cross-reactivity), as well as proteins affecting Treg cell populations, are among the most frequently used antibodies or proteins with 9D9 in published research, serving roles in both mechanistic comparison and combination therapy studies. The key findings from scientific literature citing clone 9D9a mouse anti-mouse CTLA-4 monoclonal antibodycenter on its role as a surrogate for immune checkpoint blockade studies, its anti-tumor efficacy, unique binding properties, and mechanisms of T cell activation in preclinical models. Major findings include:
Additional insights:
In summary:9D9 is a well-established tool for preclinical CTLA-4 blockade research, showing strong efficacy in activating anti-tumor immune responses and possessing unique structural and biophysical properties that are important for interpreting preclinical results and developing translatable antibody therapeutics.
