B7-H4 Antibody - Protein Information

Name VTCN1
Synonyms B7H4
Function
Negatively regulates T-cell-mediated immune response by inhibiting T-cell activation, proliferation, cytokine production and development of cytotoxicity. When expressed on the cell surface of tumor macrophages, plays an important role, together with regulatory T-cells (Treg), in the suppression of tumor- associated antigen-specific T-cell immunity. Involved in promoting epithelial cell transformation
Cellular Location
Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Potential). Note=Expressed at the cell surface. A soluble form has also been detected
Tissue Location
Overexpressed in breast, ovarian, endometrial, renal cell (RCC) and non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC) Expressed on activated T- and B-cells, monocytes and dendritic cells, but not expressed in most normal tissues (at protein level). Widely expressed, including in kidney, liver, lung, ovary, placenta, spleen and testis

BACKGROUND

As a member of B7 family, B7-H4 (VTCN1) plays a critical role in the regulation of antigen-specific immune responses. B7-H4 is a co-stimulatory protein expressed in activated T cells and is involved in the negative regulation of cell-mediated immunity in peripheral tissues (1). B7-H4 ligation to its receptor BTLA T-lymphocytes results in inhibition of T-cell activation, cytokine secretion, and the development of cytotoxicity (2). B7-H4 protein is typically expressed on the surface of activated T-cells, B-cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells, but not in most normal tissues. In tissues, B7-H4 is over expressed in breast, endometrial, ovarian, renal cell (RCC), and non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC). B7-H4 has been identified as an important cancer marker for breast and ovarian cancers (3).
