Description
Background
The pleiotropic IL3 (Interleukin 3) is a 15kDa cytokine that is primarily secreted by activated T lymphocytes and stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. IL3 acts in hematopoiesis by controlling the production, differentiation, and function of two related white cell populations of the blood, the granulocytes and the monocytes/macrophages. It induces granulocytes, macrophages, mast cells, stem cells, erythroid cells, eosinophils and megakaryocytes and is expressed by activated T cells, mast cells, and natural killer cells. IL3 not only supports growth of both pluripotent stem cells and the more differentiated committed progenitors, but it also stimulates the functional activity of some fully differentiated cells. IL3 has also been shown to protect mast cells from undergoing apoptosis.
Application Note
This purified antibody has been tested in western blotting and suitable in ELISA. By western blot a band approximately 15 kDa in size corresponding to human IL-3 protein is expected in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
Purity/Specificity
Biotin Conjugated Anti-Human IL-3 Antibody Biotin is an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation and ion exchange chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. This purified antibody has been heated to 56°C for 30 minutes. In ELISA and other immunoreactive assays, this antibody will recognize both native and recombinant human IL-3 in cell supernatants and certain body fluids. A control of similarly diluted normal rabbit IgG is recommended.
