Immunocytochemical analysis of K562 cells using anti-IRAK4 antibody (3125) at 10 μg/ml. Cells was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 h at RT; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation with a citrate buffer (pH6). Samples were incubated with primary antibody overnight at 4˚ C. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) at 1/250 was used as secondary. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.

RAW 264 cells were stimulated with (a) CSK4 and (b) CpG-DNA in the absence or presence of proteasome inhibitors (MG132 and Lactactstin).  When detected with anti-IRAK4 antibodies (C12 from ProSci, Inc.), IRAK4 expression was found to be reduced without the inhibitors.  The smaller protein band, a cleavage product of IRAK4, was present in the absence of both inhibitors.

Background:
IRAK-4 Antibody: 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-κB 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-κB 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.

VALIDATION:

Independent Antibody Validation in Cell lines (Figure 2) shows similar IRAK4 expression profile in human cell lines detected by two independent anti-IRAK4 antibodies that recognize different epitopes, 3125 against C-terminus domain and 24-025 against recombinant fusion protein. IRAK4 proteins are detected in the most tested cell lines at different expression levels by the two independent antibodies.

KO validation (Figure 6): Anti-IRAK4 antibody (3125) specificity was further verified by IRAK4 knockout and mutant mice. IRAK4 signal in the macrophages of IRAK KO mice and mutant mice was disrupted as compared to wild type mice.

Regulated expression validation (Figure 7): IRAK4 expression detected by anit-IRAK4 antibodies (3125) was reduced with CSK-4 treatment, which was rescued by proteasome inhibitors.

KD validation (Figure 8): Anti-IRAK4 antibody (3125) specificity was further verified by IRAK4 knockdown. IRAK4 signal was disrupted in HEK293T cells transfected with IRAK4 siRNAs.
