Preservative
Sodium azide
Precaution of Use
WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
Handling Advice
Avoid freezing and thawing repeatly.

4 °C/-20 °C
Storage Comment
Store at 4 °C for short term use.Store at -20 °C for long term preservation.
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces cellular responses through IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) and Toll-like receptors (TLR).IL-1R-associated kinases (IRAK, IRAK2, and IRAK-M) regulate the activation of NF-kappaB and MAP kinase (MAPK) by IL-1R/TLR.A novel member in the IRAK/Pelle family was recently identified and designated IRAK-4.Overexpression of IRAK-4 activates NF-kappaB and MAPK pathways.IRAK-4 interacts with and phosphorylates IRAK-1.IRAK-4-deficient animals are completely resistant to the challenge with LPS.Animals and humans lacking IRAK-4 are impaired in their responses to viral and bacterial challenges.Members in IRAK/Pelle family play a central role in IL-1R/TLR mediated inflammatory responses and in innate immunity.
