[Ala144] - PLP (139 - 151) A144 - PLP(139 - 151)

<p>[Ala144] - PLP (139 - 151) is a synthetic altered peptide ligand (APL) derived from the myelin proteolipid protein, specifically designed as a non-encephalitogenic analog of the native PLP 139-151 epitope. This product is engineered to modulate immune responses by altering T-cell receptor (TCR) recognition, making it a critical tool for studying immune tolerance and autoimmune disease mechanisms in experimental m…

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

The mechanism of action involves a single amino acid substitution at position 144, where tryptophan is replaced by alanine. This modification disrupts the primary TCR contact point, preventing the activation of pathogenic Th1 cells that drive autoimmunity. Instead, the peptide induces a shift in T-cell differentiation towards a protective Th2 phenotype, characterized by the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines like IL-4 and IL-10, thereby promoting immune deviation and suppression of autoimmune responses.

2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS

This product is indicated for use in immunological research focused on autoimmune diseases, particularly multiple sclerosis (MS) research using the EAE model. It is utilized to investigate antigen-specific tolerance, T-cell repertoire dynamics, and the therapeutic potential of altered peptide ligands in preventing or treating demyelinating diseases.

3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT

In preclinical studies, [Ala144] - PLP (139 - 151) has demonstrated significant efficacy in preventing the development and progression of EAE. Administration of this APL has been shown to confer protection against disease induction, reduce clinical severity, and inhibit the effector phase of EAE by modulating the cytokine profile and expanding regulatory T-cell populations.
