Human RANKL (CD254) Antibody - Denosumab biosimilar

Human IgG2 - CAS #615258-40-7

ABOUT

Anti-human RANKL (TNFSF11) - Denosumab biosimilar - CAS #615258-40-7

Anti-hRANKL-hIgG2 is a biosimilar antibody of Denosumab, a therapeutic antibody that targets the human RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand, or TNFSF11). This monoclonal antibody (mAb) blocks the interaction of RANKL with its receptor. The FDA has approved Denosumab for the treatment of osteoporosis and bone metastasis.

Anti-hRANKL-hIgG2 comprises the variable region of Denosumab and the IgG2 constant region of Denosumab with high effector functions.

This antibody can be used with HEK-Blue™ RANKL cells for screening and neutralization assays to block recombinant human RANKL -induced signaling (see figure).

Details

Denosumab background

Denosumab is a therapeutic, fully human IgG2 mAb that blocks the interaction of human (h)RANKL with its receptor RANK and thus the downstream signaling. It targets the transmembrane and soluble forms of the human RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand, also known as member 11 of the tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily (TNFSF11)) [1].  RANKL binding to its receptor RANK induces signaling in osteoclasts and is responsible for bone resorption. RANKL-RANK also plays a pivotal role in dendritic cell maturation and T-cell differentiation [2].

Human IgG2 is the second most common antibody present in serum. It is resistant to cleavage by proteolytic enzymes, due to a short hinge region. This isotype displays low complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), very low antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), and very low antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).

Denosumab has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of osteoporosis and bone metastasis [3].
