Advanced Validation
- VALIDATION:
Independent Antibody Validation (Figure 2) shows similar PD-L1 expression profile in both human and mouse cell lines detected by two independent anti-PD-L1 antibodies that recognize different epitopes, RF16035 against the center of human PD-L1 and RF16035 against the extracellular domain. PD-L1 proteins are detected in most of the cell lines, but not in A549 and THP-1 cells by the two independent antibodies.
siRNA Knockdown Validation (Figure 3): Anti-PD-L1 antibody (RF16035) specificity was further verified by PD-L1 specific siRNA knockdown. PD-L1 signal in HeLa cells transfected with PD-L1 siRNAs was much weaker in comparison with that in HeLa cells transfected with control siRNAs.
Overexpression Validation (Figure 1, 5, 10): Anti-PD-L1 antibodies (RF16035) can detect the overexpression of PD-L1 protein in 293 cells transfected with PD-L1.
- ISOFORMS: Human PD-L1 has 3 isoforms, including isoform 1 (290aa, 33.3kD), isoform 2 (176aa, 20.2kD), and isoform 3 (178aa, 20.5kD). This antibody detects human isoform 1&3, mouse and rat PD-L1 (290aa, 33kD for both of them).

Background
- PD-L1 plays a critical role in induction and maintenance of immune tolerance to self. As a ligand for the inhibitory receptor PDCD1/CD279, PD-L1 modulates the activation threshold of T-cells and limits T-cell effector response (1). The PDCD1/CD279-mediated inhibitory pathway is exploited by tumors to attenuate anti-tumor immunity and facilitate tumor survival (2,3). Through a yet unknown activating receptor, it may costimulate T-cell subsets that predominantly produce interleukin-10 (IL10) (4).
