B-TCGF, CSIF, TGIF, IL-10, IL10A, MGC126450, MGC126451, Cytokine synthesis inhibitory factor.
IL10 is a cytokine produced primarily by monocytes and to a lesser extent by lymphocytes. This cytokine has pleiotropic effects in immunoregulation and inflammation. It down-regulates the expression of Th1 cytokines, MHC class II Ags, and costimulatory molecules on macrophages. It also enhances B cell survival, proliferation, and antibody production. This cytokine can block NF-kappa B activity, and is involved in the regulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Knockout studies in mice suggested the function of this cytokine as an essential immunoregulator in the intestinal tract.
Interleukin-10 Human Recombinant produced in CHO is a non covalent dimer of 2 polypeptide chains containing 161 amino acids each and having a molecular mass of 18606.29 Dalton.
The IL-10 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 60mM PBS pH-6.5, 50mg BSA and 100mM NaCl.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-10 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Lyophilized Interleukin 10 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL10 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ser-Pro-Gly-Gln-Thr.
The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant co-stimulation with murine IL-4 of MC-9 cells was found to be < 2ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1.5 x 107 IU/mg.
