CD40 interacts with CD40 ligand (CD40L\/TNFSF5), which is expressed primarily on activated T cells but has also been reported on blood platelets, mast cells, basophils, NK cells, and B cells (5). Upon engagement with CD40L, CD40 signals through TNF receptor associated factors and MAP kinase signaling pathways, resulting in a wide variety of immune and inflammatory responses, including dendritic cell activation and cross-presentation, T cell-dependent immunoglobulin class switching, memory B cell development, and germinal center formation (6-8). The CD40\/CD40L axis is essential for the initiation and progression of cellular and humoral adaptive immunity, and is an important area of interest in the study of tumor immunology, neurodegenerative diseases, vascular diseases, and inflammatory disorders (9-12).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nB cell surface antigen CD40; B cell-associated molecule; B-cell surface antigen CD40; Bp50; CD40; CD40 antigen (TNF receptor superfamily member 5); CD40 molecule; CD40 molecule, TNF receptor superfamily member 5; CD40 type II isoform; CD40L receptor; CDw40; MGC9013; nerve growth factor receptor-related B-lymphocyte activation molecule; p50; TNFRSF5; TNR5; Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 5; tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 5\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 42\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799482028201,"sku":"40868S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-40868s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
