Briobacept (BR 3FC) is a selective human monoclonal antibody targeting to BLyS (BAFF), induces B cells apoptosis. Briobacept is a recombinant glucoprotein, consists of 2 molecules from the BLyS receptor (BR3)and a Fc domain of human IgG1. Briobacept can be used in studies of rheumatoid arthritis (RA)[1][2].
Briobacept blocks circulating BLyS, thus inhibiting B cell activation and promoting B cell apoptosis[3].
Briobacept (100 μg/mouse; i.p.; for 5 d) inhibits basal NF-κB2 activation in wild-type mice[4].
Briobacept (100 μg/mouse; i.p.; 3 times per week for 5 weeks) inhibits p52 generation and development of spontaneous lupus-like disease in NZB/WF1 mice[4].
