Description
VISTA Monoclonal Antibody (B7H5DS8), PE, eBioscience?. VISTA (V-domain Ig containing suppressor of T-cell activation), also known as B7-H5 or PD-H1, is a product of the VSIR gene. Although VISTA bears sequence homology to PD-L1 it has a different expression pattern. In both mouse and humans VISTA is expressed predominantly on hematopoietic cells with the highest densities on CD11b+ myeloid cells, and somewhat lower levels on CD4 and CD8 T cells. VISTA expressed by antigen presenting cells has been shown to directly suppress proliferation and cytokine production of CD4 and CD8 T cells, making it a target for cancer immunotherapy. Mice deficient in VISTA are viable and have elevated frequencies of activated T cells but do not spontaneou
