InVivoMAb anti-mouse/human phosphorylated PD-1 (CD279)
Product Details
The 407.6G12 monoclonal antibody reacts with phosphorylated mouse PD-1. Specifically, the antibody only reacts with PD-1 when tyrosine 248 (Y248) is phosphorylated. PD-1 is a 50-55 kDa cell surface receptor that belongs to the CD28 family of the Ig superfamily. PD-1 is transiently expressed on CD4 and CD8 thymocytes as well as activated T and B lymphocytes and myeloid cells. PD-1 expression declines after successful elimination of antigen. PD-1 signals via binding its two ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2. Upon ligand binding, PD-1 signaling inhibits T-cell activation, leading to reduced proliferation, cytokine production, and T-cell death. Phosphorylation of Y248 of the ITSM motif of PD-1 is essential for the initiation of inhibitory signals. PD-1 blockade leads to reduced phosphor-PD-1. The 6G12 antibody can be used to assess the efficacy of PD-1 pathway blockade.Specifications

Monitoring PD-1 Phosphorylation to Evaluate PD-1 Signaling during Antitumor Immune Responses PubMed
PD-1 expression marks activated T cells susceptible to PD-1-mediated inhibition but not whether a PD-1-mediated signal is being delivered. Molecular predictors of response to PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) are needed. We describe a monoclonal antibody (mAb) that detects PD-1 signaling through the detection of phosphorylation of the immunotyrosine switch motif (ITSM) in the intracellular tail of mouse and human PD-1 (phospho-PD-1). We showed PD-1+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in MC38 murine tumors had high phosphorylated PD-1, particularly in PD-1+TIM-3+ TILs. Upon PD-1 blockade, PD-1 phosphorylation was decreased in CD8+ TILs. Phospho-PD-1 increased in T cells from healthy human donors after PD-1 engagement and decreased in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma following ICB. These data demonstrate that phosphorylation of the ITSM motif of PD-1 marks dysfunctional T cells that may be rescued with PD-1 blockade. Detection of phospho-PD-1 in TILs is a potential biomarker for PD-1 immunotherapy responses.
