iLite® HER2 (-) Target

Product Overview

iLite Target HER2 (-) Assay Ready Cells are based on the human embryonic kidney cell line, HEK293*, and have been genetically engineered and optimized to be depleted of HER2 expression.

These cells are to be used as an internal control. The control cells can also be used for adjusting background levels when analyzing serum samples, effectively removing any issues with varying background between samples.

The cells are optimized to be use together with iLite ADCC and ADCP Effector Assay Ready Cells and iLite Target HER2 (+) Assay Ready Cells for measuring the ADCC and ADCP activity of anti-HER2 antibodies.

* The HEK-293 cell line has been used under a license obtained from AdVec Inc.

How it works

Principle of iLite® ADCC and ADCP Bioassays

Principle of iLite® ADCC and ADCP Bioassays

Our two-cell ADCC or ADCP bioassays consist of target cells expressing the antigen under study and effector cells closely resembling the natural FcγRIIIa (for ADCC) or FcγRIIa (for ADCP) signal transduction pathway. Target control cells that do not express the antigen are also available. The effector cells contain two luciferase genes: an inducible Firefly luciferase gene and a constitutively expressed Renilla luciferase gene used for control purposes.

Principle of iLite® ADCC and ADCP Bioassays

Principle of iLite® ADCC and ADCP Bioassays

A therapeutic antibody can bind to its antigen on the target cell surface. The fc-region of the antibody can bind to the FcγRIIIa (ADCC) or FcγRIIa (ADCP) receptor on the effector cells.

Principle of iLite® ADCC and ADCP Bioassays

Principle of iLite® ADCC and ADCP Bioassays

The antibody binding to the target and effector cells triggers a signal pathway in the effector cell, activating the Firefly luciferase gene. The strength of the resulting luciferase luminescence correlates with the antibody’s ability to activate ADCC or ADCP.
