TCR Specificity Assay

All products and services are For Research Use Only and CANNOT be used in the treatment or diagnosis of disease.

Based on the outstanding expertise and rich experience, Creative Biolabs has specially developed a system approach of TCR generation and optimization for TCR development. Our technical experts are looking forward to designing a strategy to carry out TCR development for your assays and will be able to recommend a TCR specificity assay method to meet your project needs.

The function of T lymphocytes as orchestrators and effectors of the adaptive immune response is directed by the specificity of their T cell receptors (TCRs). By transferring into T cells the genes encoding antigen-specific receptors, the functional activity of large populations of T cells can be redirected against defined targets including virally infected or cancer cells. The potential of therapeutic T cells to traffic to sites of disease, to expand and to persist after a single treatment remains a major advantage over the currently available immunotherapies that use monoclonal antibodies.

T cell responsiveness to an epitope is affected both by its affinity for the presenting MHC molecule and the affinity of the MHC-peptide complex for TCR. One limitation of cancer immunotherapy is that natural tumor antigens elicit relatively weak T cells responses, in part because high-affinity T cells are rendered tolerantly to these antigens. Scientists have reported that amino acid substitutions in a natural MHC class I-restricted tumor antigen that increase the stability of the MHC-peptide-TCR complex are significantly more potent than tumor vaccines. The improved immunity results from enhanced in vivo expansion of T cells specific for the natural tumor epitope. Hence, Creative Biolabs provides TCR-specificity assay with altering peptide ligands methods to test and optimize specificity of TCRs for interested antigens.
