Human CellExp™ CD30 /TNFRSF8, human recombinant

Human CD30, also known as TNFRSF8, is a cell membrane protein of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family and tumor marker. TNFRSF-8 is expressed by activated, but not by resting, T and B cells. Also, CD30 is expressed on classical Hodgkin Lymphoma cells together with CD15. CD30 is the receptor for TNFSF8/CD30L. CD30 can interact with TRAF2 and TRAF5, and mediate the signal transduction that leads to the activation of NF-kappa-B. TNFRSF8 may play a role in the regulation of cellular growth and transformation of activated lymphoblasts. TNFRSF8 is a positive regulator of apoptosis, and also has been shown to limit the proliferative potential of autoreactive CD8 effector T cells and protect the body against autoimmunity.
