Product Description :
GITR (TNFRSF18) is a member of the TNFR superfamily. GITR promotes T cell activation and proliferation and increases resistance to tumors and viral infections, and exacerbates autoimmune diseases and inflammation processes [1] . GITR Protein, Human (HEK293, hFc) is a recombinant protein with a C-terminal Fc label, It consists of 136 amino acids (Q26-E161) and is produced in HEK293 cells.
SpeciesSummary :
Human
Background :
GITR is expressed on regulatory T cells (Tregs) and some activated immune cells, including effector T lymphocytes, nature killer (NK) cells, and neutrophils [1] .
The amino acid sequence of human GITR protein has low homology for mouse GITR protein.
GITR does not have any enzymatic activity and signaling is propagated via recruiting TRAF-family members, specifically TRAF1, TRAF2 and TRAF5, to the GITR-signaling complex. The signaling is then mediated through NF-kB and MAPK pathways. GITR does not have any enzymatic activity and signaling is propagated via recruiting TRAF-family members, specifically TRAF1, TRAF2 and TRAF5, to the GITR-signaling complex. The signaling is then mediated through NF-kB and MAPK pathways, protecting T cells from TCR activation-induced cell death [2] .
GITR (Glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein, also known as TNFRSF18) is a type I transmembrane protein. GITR stimulates the proliferation of effector T-lymphocytes and partially reverses the immunosuppressive function of CD4+CD25+ Tregs [1] . GITR is activated by its ligand GITRL (TNFSF18). GITR induces NOS in murine macrophage in a time and dose-dependent manner [3] . GITR inhibits Multiple Myeloma (MM) cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo and induces apoptosis [4] .
