Rat IL-1 beta / IL1B Protein (mature form)

80023-RNAE

Activity: (1) Measured in a cell proliferation assay using D10.G4.1 mouse helper T cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 30-120 pg/mL. (2) Measured by its ability to induce Interferon gamma secretion by human natural killer lymphoma NK-92 cells. The EC50 for this effect is typically 20-100ng/mL.

Protein Construction: A DNA sequence encoding the mature form of rat IL1B (Q63264-1) (Val 117-Ser 268) was expressed and purified.

Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile 40mM Tris, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 7.81. Normally 5% - 8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.2. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements.Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

Reconstitution: A hardcopy of COA with reconstitution instruction is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.

IL-1 Background Information: Interleukin-1 beta (IL1 beta or IL1B) also known as catabolin, is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. IL1 is a pleiotropic cytokine. It is involved in the inflammatory response, cell growth, and tissue repair in the cortex. The IL1 superfamily consists of three members, IL1A (IL1 alpha), IL1B (IL1 beta), and IL1 receptor antagonist (IL1Ra). In clinical, it has been reported that Interleukin (IL)-1 may influence Th1 / Th2 immune responsiveness and has been implicated in the establishment of successful pregnancy. Proinflammatory interleukin (IL)-1 gene polymorphisms associated with high levels of IL-1beta activity increase the risk for hypochlorhydria and distal gastric carcinoma. IL1B polymorphisms may be involved in susceptibility to SSc. Moreover, the IL2-384-G allele may be a marker for the limited phenotype of systemic sclerosis (SSc).References:
