Description: The 4H1524 antibody reacts with human Interleukin-17A (IL-17A), a member of the IL-17 cytokine family which includes IL-17A, IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17E and IL-17F. These proteins share varying degrees of sequence homology and patterns of expression, and their unique functional roles are still being elucidated. IL-17A, originally known as CTLA-8 in mouse, can exist as homodimers and has also been shown to combine with IL-17F into an IL-17AF heterodimer, although the function of this form is not yet established. IL-17 expression originally led to recognition of the Th17 subset of CD4+ T cells, which is distinct from the Th1 / Th2 subsets previously described. The Th17 cell secretes a signature group of cytokines, including IL-17, IL-21 and IL-22, which support innate immune function within tissues at external barrier sites and are protective against external pathogens. IL-17A is an important mediator of inflammation and has been implicated in a variety of autoimmune processes. Among its many effector functions, IL-17A enhances expression of the intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in fibroblasts and promotes expression of numerous cytokines by non-immune cells such as epithelial, endothelial, fibroblast and stromal cells. The 4H1524 antibody may be used for analysis of human IL-17A by intracellular staining in flow cytometry.

This antibody preparation has been pre-titrated and quality-tested for flow cytometry using an appropriate cell type. The antibody has been diluted for use at 5 uL per test, defined as the amount of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of approximately 100 uL. The number of cells within a sample should be determined empirically, but typically ranges between 1x10e5 to 1x10e8 cells.
