Description
The recombinant human IL-7-Fc fusion protein is a glycosylated functional dimer produced in CHO expression systems, engineered with a C-terminal human IgG1 Fc domain to enhance protein stability and receptor clustering efficacy.
As a pivotal member of the IL-2 cytokine family, IL-7 activates the JAK1/JAK3-STAT5 signaling cascade via its heterodimeric receptor (IL-7Rα/γc), driving survival, proliferation, and differentiation of T/B/NK cells while maintaining lymphocyte homeostasis through Bcl-2-mediated anti-apoptotic mechanisms and promoting CD4+/CD8+ double-positive T-cell maturation during thymic development.
In cell therapy manufacturing, this fusion protein serves as a critical culture additive to enhance CAR-T cell metabolic fitness and memory phenotype formation through sustained PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway activation. It synergizes with IL-15 to suppress exhaustion markers (e.g., PD-1/TIM-3) while supporting hematopoietic stem cell differentiation into functional lymphoid progenitors, thereby improving the persistence and antitumor efficacy of adoptive immune cell products.
The Fc-mediated dimeric configuration mimics native membrane-bound IL-7 bioactivity and optimizes pharmacokinetic profiles through extended serum half-life.
