Description

Description: This gene encodes a member of the interleukin family of cytokines that have important functions in immune response, hematopoiesis, inflammation and the acute phase response. The ectopic overexpression of the encoded protein in mice results in excessive plasma cells in circulation, leading to death. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit abnormalities in hepatic acute phase response, some immune mechanisms, bone resorption in response to estrogen, liver regeneration and wound healing. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

Note

For In vitro laboratory use only. Not for any clinical, therapeutic, or diagnostic use in humans or animals. Not for animal or human consumption

Application Notes

We recommend the following starting dilutions: For WB: Use at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 µg/ml. For ELISA: Use at a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 µg/ml. For IHC-Fr: Use at a concentration of 0.5 µg/ml. For Neutralization: one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of Mouse IL-6 (3 pg/ml), a concentration of 0.24-0.36 µg/ml of this antibody is required. Optimal dilutions should be determined experimentally by the end user.

Storage Note

Store as concentrated solution. Centrifuge briefly prior to opening vial. For short-term storage (1-2 weeks), store at 4C. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20C or below. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
