IL 13 Protein

• Gene Aliases:

  Il-, Il-13

• Gene ID:

  16163

• Accession Number:

  NP_032381.1

• Reactivity:

  Mouse

• Target:

  IL13 is an immunoregulatory cytokine produced primarily by activated Th2 cells. IL-13 is involved in several stages of B-cell maturation and differentiation. It up-regulates CD23 and MHC class II expression, and promotes IgE isotype switching of B cells. This cytokine down-regulates macrophage activity, thereby inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. This cytokine is found to be critical to the pathogenesis of allergen-induced asthma but operates through mechanisms independent of IgE and eosinophils. This gene, IL3, IL5, IL4, and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q, with this gene particularly close to IL4.

• Bioactivity:

  50

• Format:

  The protein (1mg/ml) was lyophilized with no additives. Physical appearance: Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

• Reconstitution:

  Reconstitution: //It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin 13 in sterile 18M Omega -cm H2O not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. Storage: //Lyophilized Interleukin-13 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18C. Upon reconstitution IL13 should be stored at 4C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0. 1% HSA or BSA) . Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.Storage: //Lyophilized Interleukin-13 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18C.
