Product Details anti-IL-7 Antibody

Specificity: Human Interleukin-7

Purification: Affinity chromatography.

Immunogen: Highly pure (>98%) recombinant hIL-7

Application Details

Application Notes: Neutralization: To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of hIL-7(0.5 ng/mL), a concentration of 0.05 - 0.08 μg/mL of this antibody is required. ELISA: To detect hIL-7 by direct ELISA (using 100 l/well antibody solution) a concentrationof at least 0.5 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, inconjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of 0.2 - 0.4 ng/wellof recombinant hIL-7. Western Blot: To detect hIL-7 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at aconcentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagentsthe detection limit for recombinant hIL-7 is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing ornon-reducing conditions.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Target Details for IL-7

Target: IL-7 (IL7) (Interleukin 7 (IL7))

Alternative Name: Interleukin-7 / IL7

Background: Interleukin 7 (IL7) is a lymphoid cell growth factor that affects pre-B, pro-B, and early T cells. IL7 was previously known as pre-B cell growth factor and lymphopoietin 1. IL7 supports the growth of early B cells from long-term lymphoid bone marrow cultures. It is mitogenic to thymocytes and enhances the response of cells to other stimuli such as polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) and concanavalin A (ConA). IL7 stimulates the proliferation of CD4+/CD8+ cells. The proliferative response of thymocytes to IL7 is not affected by antibodies to the T cell growth factors such as IL2, IL4 and IL6, suggesting that IL7 is capable of stimulating T cell proliferation through a pathway independent of the known T cell growth factors. Mature T cells respond to IL7 and Con A, but not to IL7 alone. In myeloid lineage cells, IL7 upregulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and stimulates the tumoricidal activity of monocytes/macrophages. IL7 is expressed by adherent stromal cells from various tissues.Synonyms: IL-7
