Short Description: |
Recombinant-Mouse IL-18-C-His protein was developed from hek293 cells and has a target region of C-His. For use in research applications. |
Formulation: |
Lyophilized from a 0.22 Mu m filtered solution of PBS, pH 8.0. |
Storage Instruction: |
Store at-20°C for up to 1 year from the date of receipt, and avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles. |
Immunoreactivity: |
Measured by its ability to induce IFN-gamma secretion by KG1 human acute myelogenous leukemia cells in the presence of TNF-alpha (Catalog: RP00001). The ED50 for this effect is 42.93-171.72 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of 0.58×104~2.3× |

Immunogen: |
Recombinant Mouse IL-18 Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence of Mouse IL-18 fused with His tag at the C-terminus |
Function | Pro-inflammatory cytokine primarily involved in epithelial barrier repair, polarized T-helper 1 (Th1) cell and natural killer (NK) cell immune responses. Upon binding to IL18R1 and IL18RAP, forms a signaling ternary complex which activates NF-kappa-B, triggering synthesis of inflammatory mediators. Synergizes with IL12/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T-helper 1 (Th1) cells and natural killer (NK) cells. Involved in transduction of inflammation downstream of pyroptosis: its mature form is specifically released in the extracellular milieu by passing through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore. |
