PSMα3 TFA

• Catalog Number: orb1943404
• Category: Small Molecules
• Description: PSMα3 TFA is a peptide used to direct dendritic cells (DCs) towards a tolerogenic state, critical for DC vaccination approaches. It modulates human monocyte-derived DCs by disrupting maturation induced by TLR2 or TLR4, suppressing pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion, and reducing antigen assimilation. Notably, PSMα3 TFA is a significant toxin secreted by highly virulent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains [1] [2].
• Purity: 98.00%
• Biological Activity: PSMα3 TFA is a peptide utilized in directing dendritic cells (DCs) towards a tolerogenic state, pivotal for DC vaccination approaches. It intrudes and recalibrates human monocyte-derived DCs, disrupting maturation triggered by TLR2 or TLR4, suppressing both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion, and diminishing antigen assimilation. Notably, PSMα3 TFA constitutes a significant toxin secreted by highly virulent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains [1] [2].
