  • Field of Research:

    Immunology

  • Relevance:

    Cytokine with antiviral, antitumour and immunomodulatory activities. Plays a critical role in the antiviral host defense, predominantly in the epithelial tissues. Acts as a ligand for the heterodimeric class II cytokine receptor composed of IL10RB and IFNLR1, and receptor engagement leads to the activation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway resulting in the expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISG), which mediate the antiviral state. Has a restricted receptor distribution and therefore restricted targets: is primarily active in epithelial cells and this cell type-selective action is because of the epithelial cell-specific expression of its receptor IFNLR1. Exerts an immunomodulatory effect by up-regulating MHC class I antigen expression.

  • Endotoxin:

    Less than 1.0 EU/μg as determined by LAL method.

  • Purity:

    >97% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

  • Activity:

    Yes

  • Bioactivity:

    Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by an anti-viral assay using human HepG2 cells infected with encephalomyocarditis is less than 5 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 2.0 x 105 IU/mg.

  • Form:

    Lyophilized powder

  • Buffer:

    Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered PBS, pH 7.4

  • Reconstitution:

    We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
