CD127-muIg Purified (Preservative-free)
CD127 (IL-7Ra) is the specific receptor component for the cytokine Interleukin -7 (IL-7). It is found on a wide variety of hematopoietic cell types including B cell precursors, and the majority of T cells. Its expression levels are decreased on T cells following activation. CD127 can dimerize with CD132(IL-2Rg) to form a high affinity IL-7 receptor (1). CD127 engagement is necessary for T cell development in humans (2).
