| Targets |
CEF8 targets the immune system, specifically HLA-B*2705-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes. As an HLA-B*2705-restricted epitope, it is recognized by CTLs in the context of HLA-B*2705 MHC class I molecules. The peptide is associated with escape from CTL-mediated immunity, as viruses can acquire mutations in or adjacent to CTL epitopes to evade immune surveillance.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, CEF8 is used to study CTL-mediated immunity and viral escape mechanisms. The peptide is presented by HLA-B*2705 molecules on the surface of antigen-presenting cells and is recognized by specific CTLs. T-cell receptor interactions and CTL activation can be studied using this peptide in in vitro assays.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity of CEF8 has been studied in the context of influenza virus infection and CTL-mediated immune responses. Viruses can exploit the acquisition of mutations in or adjacent to CTL epitopes to evade immune surveillance by CTLs. The peptide is used to study immune escape mechanisms in influenza virus infection.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for CEF8 typically involve studying its binding to HLA-B*2705 MHC class I molecules. The peptide is incubated with purified HLA-B*2705 protein or cell lysates expressing HLA-B*2705, and binding affinity is assessed using peptide-MHC binding assays. Stabilization of peptide-MHC complexes can be measured using ELISA or flow cytometry-based methods.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for CEF8 typically employ antigen-presenting cells expressing HLA-B*2705 and CTL lines or clones specific for the epitope. Cells are pulsed with the peptide and co-cultured with CTLs. CTL activation is assessed by measuring IFN-γ production via ELISPOT or intracellular cytokine staining, cytotoxicity by ⁵¹Cr release or other killing assays, and T-cell proliferation by CFSE dilution.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with CEF8 have been conducted in the context of influenza virus infection models. HLA-B*2705 transgenic mice or other appropriate models are infected with influenza virus, and CTL responses to the CEF8 epitope are assessed. Viral escape mutations in the epitope are identified by sequencing. However, specific study protocols are not detailed in the available literature.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of CEF8 have not been characterized, as it is a research peptide rather than a therapeutic agent. As a peptide, it is likely to be rapidly degraded by peptidases. The compound is intended for research use only.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of CEF8 has not been characterized. The peptide is a research-grade immunology tool and is not intended for therapeutic use. No specific toxicology data are available.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
