产品描述 概述Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a pleiotropic cytokine that induces differentiation of naive helper T cells (Th0 cells) to Th2 cells and produced by mast cells, activated T cells and bone marrow stromal cells. It has many biological roles, including the stimulation of activated B-cell and T-cell proliferation, and the differentiation of CD4+ T-cells into Th2 cells. IL-4 can enhance both secretion and cell surface expression of IgE and IgG1 and also regulates the expression of the low affinity Fc receptor for IgE (CD23) on both lymphocytes and monocytes. The rat IL-4 shares about 40 % ~ 45 % a.a. sequence identity with human, mouse, rhesus macaque IL-4 and they are species-specific in their activities. 使用说明This material is offered by Novin Biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes.
