Background: Interleukin-13, or IL-13, is a pleiotropic cytokine that exhibits 30% sequence identity with IL-4 and shares many of the same biological activities. Like IL-4, IL-13 affects monocytes, macrophages and B cells by upregulating the expression of CD23 and MHC proteins, and downregulating the expression of CD14. Both IL-4 and IL-13 are secreted by activated T lymphocytes and are powerful regulators of inflammation. Both inhibit the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines from activated monocytes and stimulate the expression of IgE on activated B cells. IL-13 contains five Cysteine residues and multiple N-linked glycosylation sites and has been reported to inhibit the production of IL-2 in natural killer cells. IL-13 cDNA encodes a 131 amino acid precursor with a 20 amino acid signal peptide which is cleaved to generate a mature protein.

Purification and Purity: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).

Storage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Specificity: IL13 polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of IL13 protein.

Bioworld Molecular Weight: ~ 16 kDa

Note: For research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedure.
