NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
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]

The IL-18 il18 (Catalog #AAA551052) is an Antibody produced from Polyclonal anti IL-18 was produced from sera of rabbits immunized with synthetic protein containing IL-18 C Terminal antigenic determinants. and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit anti IL-18 Polyclonal reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat 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), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), ELISA (EIA). ELISA: Use at a concentration range of 1-2ug/ml. Western blot: Use at a concentration range of 2-10 ug/ml. Immunohistochemical (IHC): A suitable range of concentrations of this antibody for IHC is 2-10 ug/ml. 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.Precautions
