PeproTech IL-10 Polyclonal Antibody, Biotin, PeproTech®, Invitrogen™

Description

AA Sequence of recombinant protein: MSRGQYSRED NNCTHFPVGQ SHMLLELRTA FSQVKTFFQT KDQLDNILLT DSLMQDFKGY LGCQALSEMI QFYLVEVMPQ AEKHGPEIKE HLNSLGQKLK TLRMRLRRCH RFLPCENKSK AVEQVKSDFN KLEDQGVYKA MNEFDIFINC IEAYMMIKMK S. Preparation: Produced from sera of rabbits immunized with highly pure Recombinant Murine IL-10. Anti-Murine IL-10-specific antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and then biotinylated. Sandwich ELISA: To detect mIL-10 by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.25-1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This biotinylated polyclonal antibody, in conjunction with PeproTech Polyclonal Anti-Murine IL-10 (500-P60) as a capture antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of Recombinant mIL-10. Western Blot: To detect mIL-10 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for Recombinant mIL-10 is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions. 500-P60BT-1MG will be provided as 2 x 500 μg

IL-10 encodes a protein that acts as a cytokine and is primarily produced by monocytes, with some production by lymphocytes. This cytokine has various effects on immunoregulation and inflammation, including down-regulating the expression of Th1 cytokines, MHC class II Ags, and costimulatory molecules on macrophages. It also enhances B cell survival, proliferation, and antibody production. Additionally, IL-10 can block NF-kappa B activity and is involved in the regulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Knockout studies in mice have suggested that this cytokine is an essential immunoregulator in the intestinal tract. Mutations in this gene have been associated with an increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and rheumatoid arthritis. Diseases associated with IL10 include Graft-Versus-Host Disease and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1.
