Anti-TIM 1 Antibody [RMT1-10] (A281685)

Anti-TIM 1 Antibody [RMT1-10]

Rat monoclonal [RMT1-10] antibody to TIM 1.

This antibody recognises mouse Tim-1 (T-cell immunoglobulin mucin 1), a cell surface glycoprotein first identified as the hepatitis A virus cellular receptor (HAVCR). TIM-1 is highly expressed in the liver (isoform Tim-1a) and the kidneys (isoform Tim-1b).Tim-1 is highly expressed by activated CD4+ T cells, acting as a positive/negative co-stimulatory molecule of T cell proliferation, cytokine production and tolerance abrogation, and is the receptor for Tim-4, expressed on APCs. Tim-1 expression is greater on Th2 than Th1 cells, interaction between Tim-1 on Th2 cells and Tim-4 on dendritic cells (DCs), enhances Th2 cell function, and have implicated Tim-1 as a critical player in the development of atopic disease, and in particular airway hypersensitivity.In humans, polymorphic forms of Tim-1 are associated with increased susceptibility to asthma, eczema and rheumatoid arthritis. Rat anti Mouse TIM-1 antibody, clone RMT1-10 promotes Th2 responses, and inhibits antigen-specific T cell proliferation, in contrast to the agonistic function of many Tim-1 antibodies. Rat anti Mouse TIM-1 antibody, clone RMT1-10 reduces the severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and delays disease onset in mice.
