This recombinant protein can be used for biological assays. For research use only.
Background:
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) belongs to the neutrophil-specific CXC family of chemokines. It is one of the initial cytokines released from a variety of cell types, including T cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts, in response to an inflammatory stimulus and acts by recruiting neutrophils, T-cells and basophils to the site of inflammation. Elevated Interleukin-8 levels are associated with the onset of a variety of disease states.
Biological Activity:
Recombinant IL-8 (3-79) is fully biologically active when compared to standards.
ED50 is less than 2 ng/ml as determined by its chemotaxis of hCXCR-2 transfected mouse BaF/3 cells.
Specific Activity of 5.0 x 105 IU/mg.
Buffer:
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, pH 7.4. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 ug/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.
