Mechanism of Action

Description
Pembrolizumab (anti-PD-1) is a potent, highly selective, fully humanized immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-kappa monoclonal antibody against PD-1 with potential immune checkpoint inhibitory and antineoplastic activities. MW : 146.286 KD.
Features
Human IgG4
Targets/IC50/Ki
PD-1
(Cell-free assay)
In vitro

The level of LDH and apoptosis are significantly higher in those treated with dexamethasone plus PD1 inhibitor pembrolizumab than other groups.
Cell Research

Cancer cells were incubated with dexamethasone for 48 h followed by co-cultured with PBMCs with effector/target ratio of 10:1 and the addition of PD1 inhibitor (pembrolizumab; 5 μg/mL) for another 48 h. LDH level was detected.
In vivo

Pembrolizumab and dexamethasone synergistically suppress tumor growth of pancreatic cancer in vivo.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1:
How to store the antibody?

Answer:
Store the undiluted solution at 4 °C in the dark. Freezing antibodies can result in a loss of activity caused by the freezing/thawing process. Diluting antibodies to working concentrations and storing at 4°C for more than a day should be avoided. Additionally, make sure to keep the antibody sterile. Under these storage conditions, your antibodies should remain active for up to one year and oftentimes longer.
