DescriptionDescriptionSpecificity Rabbit Anti-Human Interleukin-23 (IL-23) recognizes an epitope near the N-terminus of Human and Mouse IL-23. This polyclonal antibody was purified using affinity chromatography. Background Like interleukin-27 (IL-27), IL-23 is a recently discovered member of the IL-6/IL-12 family of proinflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokines. It exists as a heterodimer composed of the IL-12p40 subunit and a novel p19 subunit. IL-23 is secreted by activated dendritic cells, macrophages, and monocytes.3,4 Its biological activities include enhancing the proliferation of memory T cells and the production of IFN-γ, IL-12, and TNF-α from activated T cells, and can stimulate macrophages to produce TNF-α and nitric oxide. It has also been shown to possess potent anti-tumor and anti-metastatic activity in mouse models of cancer, suggesting a potential role for IL-23 in therapeutic treatment of cancer.
