产品描述 概述Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-17A is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Thr22-Ala158 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. 使用说明This material is offered by Novin Biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. NOT FOR HUMAN USE. 技术规格| Tag | C-6His | | 种属 | Mouse | | 表达系统 | Human Cells | | Accession# | Q62386 | | Source | Human Cells | | Formulation_Description | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. | | Storage | Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, thoμgh stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days.Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. | | Reconstitution | Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. | | Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. | | Endotoxin | Less than 0.1 ng/μg (1 EU/μg) as determined by LAL test. | | Background | Interleukin-17 is a potent pro-inflammatory cytokine produced by activated memory T cells. There are at least six members of the IL-17 family in humans and in mice. Mature mouse IL-17A shares 61% and 89% amino acid sequence identity with human and rat IL-17A, respectively. As IL-17 shares properties with IL-1 and TNF-alpha, it may induce joint inflammation and bone and cartilage destruction. This cytokine is found in synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and produced by rheumatoid arthritis synovium. It increases IL-6 production, induces collagen degradation and decreases collagen synthesis by synovium and cartilage and proteoglycan synthesis in cartilage. IL-17 is also able to increase bone destruction and reduce its formation. Blocking of interleukin-17 with specific inhibitors provides a protective inhibition of cartilage and bone degradation. | | Biological_Activity | Measured by its ability to induce IL-6 secretion by NIH 3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.25-1.25 ng/ml. |
