IL-6 is a secreted cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions.
It is a potent inducer of the acute phase response and plays an essential role in the final differentiation of B-cells into Ig-secreting cells Involved in lymphocyte and monocyte differentiation.
IL-6 induces myeloma and plasmacytoma growth and induces nerve cells differentiation and acts on B-cells, T-cells, hepatocytes, hematopoeitic progenitor cells and cells of the CNS.
IL-6 also acts as a myokine.
It is discharged into the bloodstream after muscle contraction and acts to increase the breakdown of fats and to improve insulin resistance.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry.

Sodium azide is a potent inhibitor of peroxidase and should not be added to HRP conjugates.
HRP conjugates are sensitive to light.
仕様
Size:100ug
Host:rabbit
Source Antibody:human
Grade:Purified
Purity:Purified
Form:Supplied as a lyophilized powder from 0.02M PBS, pH 7.2, 10mg/ml BSA, 0.01% gentamicin sulfate. Reconstitute with 100ul sterile dH2O. Labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP).
Specificity:Recognizes both native and recombinant human IL-6 at ~23.7kD. In Western blot analysis of natural cell products or human body fluids, multiple bands of IL-6 will appear due to the variable amount of glycosylation on the molecule. A control of similarly diluted normal rabbit IgG is recommended. This product has minimal reactivity with mouse IL-6.
