Validation:

Recombinant Protein Test (Figure 3) : Anti-BAFF antibodies (2221) detected human BAFF recombinant protein at different concentrations.

Regulated expression validation (Figure 6-8) : BAFF expression detected by anit-BAFF antibodies (2221) was up-regulated  in patients with myloma or Graves’ disease or in murine transplanted heart.

Isoform: Human BAFF has 3 isoforms, including isoform 1 (285aa, 31kD) , isoform 2 (266aa, 29kD) and isoform 3 (164aa, 17.6kD) . Mouse BAFF has 2 isoforms, including isoform 1 (309aa, 34kD) and isoform 2 (290aa, 32kD) . Rat BAFF has only one isoform (274aa, 30kD) . 2221 can detect two longer human isoforms, mouse and rat.

Alternate Name: BAFF Antibody: DTL, BAFF, BLYS, CD257, TALL1, THANK, ZTNF4, TALL-1, TNFSF20, UNQ401/PRO738, Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13B, B lymphocyte stimulator

User Note: Optimal dilutions for each application to be determined by the researcher.

BACKGROUND: BAFF Antibody: Members in the TNF superfamily regulate immune responses and induce apoptosis. A novel member in the TNF family was recently identified by several groups and designated BAFF (for B cell Activating Factor belonging to the TNF Family) , BLyS (for B Lymphocyte Stimulator) , TALL-1 (for TNF- and ApoL-related Leukocyte-expressed Ligand) , and THANK (for TNF Homologue that Activate Apoptosis, NF-κB and c-jun N-terminal Kinase) . BAFF/BLyS was characterized as a B cell activator since it induced B cell proliferation and immunoglobulin secretion. Three receptors for BAFF were recently identified and designated TACI, BCMA and BAFF-R. BAFF and its receptors are essential for B cell development, survival, and humoral immune responses. BAFF is involved in the development of autoimmune diseases including systemic lupus erythaematosus and rheumatoid arthritis.
