Anti-CD48 [OX-45]

7

OX-45 binds specifically to CD48 on rat thymocytes, T and B cells and endothelium but not LFA.3. Directly competes with CD46 for binding the target epitope. CD48 is a CD2 ligand and is expressed on the surface of all hematopoietic cells and endothelium. M

Describes the use of OX-45 in blocking the primary mixed lymphocyte response (MLR)and the secondary response of T lymphocytes to the soluble antigen DNP-BGG. It also showed that OX-45 did not have any effect on the cytotoxic activity of specific (CTL) or non-specific (NK) killer cells or on proliferative responses stimulated by lectins or oxidative mitogenesis.
