Description
- Description: The BVD6-24G2 antibody reacts with mouse interleukin-4 (IL-4), a 14 kDa cytokine secreted by Th2 cells
- Applications Reported: BVD6-24G2 has been reported for use in intracellular flow cytometric analysis
- Applications Tested: This BVD6-24G2 antibody is offered in 2 formats: - μg size: has been tested by intracellular staining and flow cytometric analysis of restimulated mouse splenocytes cultures
- This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 μg per test
- A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL
- Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test
- It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest
- - test size: has been pre-titrated and tested by intracellular staining and flow cytometric analysis of restimulated mouse splenocytes cultures
- Refer to catalog number suffix on the vial for amount to use per test: -41 is 5 μL (0.25 μg) per test
- A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL
- Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test
- Excitation: 488 nm; Emission: 520 nm; Laser: Blue Laser
- Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered
- Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a pleiotropic, immune-modulatory cytokine produced by activated T cells, and serves as a ligand for interleukin 4 receptor
- IL-4 has been found to have the broadest range of actions
- The interleukin 4 receptor also binds to IL13, which may contribute to many overlapping functions of this cytokine and IL13
- STAT6, a signal transducer and activator of transcription, has been shown to play an important role in mediating the immune regulatory signal of IL-4
- The IL-4 gene, IL-3, IL-5, IL-13, and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q
- In particular, IL-4 is located in close proximity to IL13 on the chromosome
- Further, the IL-4 gene, IL13 and IL5 are found to be coordinated by several long-range regulatory elements over a 120 kilobase range on the chromosome
- IL-4 delta 2 is a known splice variant of IL-4.
