Description

B7­H4 (B7 homolog 4), also known as B7X, B7H4, B7S1, and VTCN1, is a single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the B7 family of the Immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. Like other B7 family members, B7-H4 contains one Ig V-like and one Ig C-like domain in the extracellular region. Among the family members, they share about 20-25% amino acid identity. B7­H4 is expressed on the surface of activated lymphocytes, macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, epithelial cells, and bone marrow­derived mesenchymal stem cells. It can be up-regulated by IL6  and IL10 and inhibited by CSF2 / GM-CSF and IL4 / interleukin-4 on antigen-presenting cells. B7-H4 negatively regulates T-cell-mediated immune response by inhibiting T-cell activation, proliferation, cytokine production and development of cytotoxicity. When expressed on the cell surface of tumor macrophages, B7-H4 plays an important role, together with regulatory T-cells (Treg), in the suppression of tumor-associated antigen-specific T-cell immunity. B7H4 is also involved in promoting epithelial cell transformation. B7-H4 is up-regulated in several carcinomas in correlation with tumor progression and metastasis.  A soluble form of B7­H4 is elevated in the serum of ovarian cancer, renal cell carcinoma, and rheumatoid arthritis patients, also in correlation with advanced disease status.

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CGGGAAGCAATAGCATGATA-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
