Anti-Human DR5 (Drozitumab)

Expression Host : HEK-293 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 this recombinant biosimilar antibodies are tested and guaranteed to be negative for all pathogens in the IDEXX IMPACT I Mouse Profile. This non-therapeutic biosimilar antibody uses the same variable region sequence as the therapeutic antibody Drozitumab. Clone PRO95780 recognizes human death receptor 5 (DR5). This product is for research use only. Drozitumab is a monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to human DR5. DR5 is expressed in a variety of solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, which are characteristically resistant to apoptosis. Drozitumab is a proapoptotic receptor agonists (PARA) that induces apoptosis in a variety of human cancer cell lines and xenograft models, both alone and in tandem with other antineoplastic agents.1 Apoptosis of cancer cells triggered by the activation of DR5, occurs without affecting most normal cell types. Anti-Human DR5 (Drozitumab) utilizes the same variable regions from the therapeutic antibody Drozitumab making it ideal for research projects.
