Background: Interleukin-18 (IL-18), an 18 kDa cytokine, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 157 amino acids. IL-18 was previously known as interferon-g inducing factor (IGIF). This pleiotropic cytokine is produced by monocyte/macrophage cells. Like IL-12, IL-18 plays an important role in cell-mediated immune responses.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine that augments natural killer cell activity in spleen cells, and stimulates interferon gamma production in T-helper type I cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Uniprot Description

Product Notes

The IL-18 il18 (Catalog #AAA840248) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The IL-18 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's IL-18 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). The antibody can be used for Western blot analysis (0.5-4 ug/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. Recombinant human IL-18 can be used as a positive control. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the IL-18 il18 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL-18, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
