General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-11560) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human IL1RN, targeting the amino acid region 26–177 of the protein. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) is a critical member of the IL-1 family of cytokines, which plays a significant role in modulating inflammatory responses. IL-1RA exists in two main forms: a secreted form (sIL-1Ra) and an intracellular form (icIL-1Ra). The secreted form is produced by various cells including monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and other cells, while the intracellular form is found in keratinocytes and other epithelial cells, as well as in monocytes and fibroblasts. IL-1RA is important in host defense against endotoxin-induced injury and is produced in numerous experimental animal models of disease, as well as in human autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases. It acts as an anti-inflammatory agent by maintaining the balance between pro-inflammatory IL-1α/β and its own anti-inflammatory effects.
DPABH-11560 is suitable for use in ELISA (1:4,000–1:8,000), IHC (1:50–1:100), Western blot (WB) (1:1,000–1:4,000) applications.
DPABH-11560 is supplied as a liquid formulation in 0.01M PBS, pH 7.4, 50% Glycerol, 0.05% Proclin 300. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
