Figure 1: anti-BAFF (mouse), mAb (Sandy-2) (preservative free) (Prod. No. AG-20B-0063PF) blocks the action of endogenous BAFF in vivo.
Method: Wild type C57BL/6 mice were treated i.p. at day 0 (single administration) with monoclonal antibody anti-BAFF (mouse), mAb (Sandy-2) (preservative free) (at 2mg/kg). Lymph nodes were prepared at week 2 and analyzed by FACS for the presence of T (CD3) and B (CD19) cells. Untreated BAFF WT and KO mice were analyzed in parallel.

Description
BAFF is a master regulator of peripheral B cell survival and, together with IL-6, promotes Ig class-switching and plasma cell differentiation. BAFF co-stimulates activated T cells. Increased levels of soluble BAFF have been detected in the serum of patients with various autoimmune diseases, such as Sjögren’s syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Furthermore, BAFF is found in inflammatory sites in which there is lymphoid neogenesis. BAFF levels are elevated in patients with multiple myeloma and B cell chronic lymphoid leukemia (B-CCL).
