Bio-Rad, PAP003, IL-6

Recombinant chicken inerleukin-6 is a histidine tagged molecule produced in E. coli . Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional pro-inflammatory cytokine, produced by a wide variety of cells including B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, monocytes/macrophages, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. It plays a major role in the regulation of immune responses, haematopoiesis and the induction of acute phase responses. Recombinant chicken inerleukin-6 induces corticosterone secretion in vivo and induces proliferation of the IL-6 dependant murine hybridoma cell line 7TD1 in vitro ( Marais et al. 2011 ). Recombinant chicken inerleukin-6 ( PAP003 ) is the immunogen used to produce Bio-Rad chicken IL-6 antibody ( AHP942Z ).
