Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (CL1-R2) is a human monoclonal antibody targeting CD160. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) blocks the CD160 - HVEM protein interaction, inhibits FGF2 -mediated renal tubular vascular growth, and induces endothelial cell apoptosis. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) targets CD160 on neovascularization to exert anti-angiogenic and vascular normalization effects, trigger the production of IFN-γ, TNF and IL-6 by NK cells, and enhance glucose metabolism of NK cells through the AKT / mTOR / s6k signaling pathway. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) reduces vascular density, normalizes remaining tumor blood vessels, and inhibits tumor growth in melanoma-bearing mice. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) can be used in research related to neovascularization, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, and melanoma [1] [2] [3] [4].
In Vivo, Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (25-100 μg; subconjunctival injection; 2 administrations for early/combination/monotherapy regimens, 2 administrations for late-stage regimen, and 1 administration for Fab'2 regimen) significantly inhibits corneal neovascularization (CNV) induced by FGF2 and VEGF in rabbits. It exerts a synergistic effect when combined with Bevacizumab, and early treatment reduces CNV grading by up to 73%[1]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (5 µg per eye; intravitreal injection; single injection on postnatal day 12) effectively inhibits pathological retinal neovascularization in a mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy, reducing endothelial cell nuclei by approximately 35% and vascular lumens by approximately 50% compared with the control group[2]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (25 µg per plug, mixed with Matrigel during implantation; 200 µg per injection, directly injected into the plug, once every 2 days for 7 days) significantly inhibits FGF2-induced neovascularization in the mouse Matrigel plug assay, reducing hemoglobin content by approximately 45% compared with the control group[2]. Combination treatment with Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (500 µg per injection; intraperitoneal injection; three times per week starting from the day of tumor inoculation) and Cyclophosphamide reduces the vascular density of B16 melanoma by approximately 40%, normalizes the remaining tumor blood vessels, enhances drug delivery, significantly inhibits tumor growth in mice, and improves their survival outcomes[2].
In Vitro, Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) inhibits FGF2-mediated tubular angiogenesis in CD160-expressing human umbilical vein endothelial cells[1]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) inhibits FGF2-mediated tubule formation and induces apoptosis in CD160-expressing human umbilical vein endothelial cells[2]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (6 µg/mL) specifically binds to CD160 expressed on neovascular endothelial cells of human colon cancer[2]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (10 µg/mL; 1-h pre-incubation followed by 24-hour cytokine stimulation) significantly enhances the production of IFN-γ and GLUT1 in total NK cells infected with HIV[3]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (10 µg/mL; 30-minute incubation) activates the PI3K/AKT/mTOR/s6k signaling pathway in total NK cells infected with HIV, and significantly increases the phosphorylation levels of AKT, mTOR and s6k[3]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (1-10 μg/mL; 24 h) inhibits FGF2-induced capillary tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)[4]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (10 μg/mL; 50 h) induces apoptosis in HUVEC in the presence of VEGF, but does not induce apoptosis in primary human fibroblasts[4]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (1-10 μg/mL; 0-50 h) induces time-dependent apoptosis in HUVECs and SGHEC-7 endothelial cells[4]. Anti-CD160 Antibody (MAT 302) (20 μg/mL; 2 h at 4°C) binds to HUVEC and HMVEC[4].
