Reactive Species
Human
Host Species
Goat
Immunogen
Purified Recombinant Human IL-7 (>98%)
Endotoxin Level
<0.10 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method
Formulation
This antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody has been 0.2 µm filtered and lyophilized from modified Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (1X PBS) pH 7.2 – 7.4 containing 5.0% w/v trehalose with no calcium, magnesium, or preservatives present.
State of Matter
Lyophilized
Storage and Handling
The lyophilized antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody can be stored desiccated at -20°C to -70°C for twelve months from date of receipt. The reconstituted antibody can be stored for at least four weeks at 2-8°C. For long-term storage of the reconstituted antibody, aseptically aliquot into working volumes and store at -20°C to -70°C in a manual defrost freezer. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles. No detectable loss of activity was observed after six months.

Applications and Recommended Usage?
Quality Tested by Leinco
Western Blot: Suitable for use at concentration of 0.1 µg/mL.
Additional Applications Reported In Literature ?
Neutralization: Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑7-induced proliferation in PHA-activated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Yokota, T. et al. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83:5894. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.075-0.5 µg/mL in the presence of 2.5 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL‑7.
Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change.

Description

Description

Specificity
Rabbit Anti-Human Interleukin-7 (IL-7) recognizes Human IL-7. This antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody was purified using a proprietary chromatographic technique that includes covalently immobilizing the antigen proteins or peptides to agarose based beads. This purification method enhances specificity, reduces nonspecific binding of extraneous IgG and provides you with the most reliable reagent available for your early discovery research.
Background
Interleukin 7 (IL-7) is a glycoprotein cytokine initially referred to as pre-B cell growth factor because of its growth-promoting activity for cells early in the B lymphocyte lineage. Subsequent to IL-7 gene cloning and expression, IL-7 was also found to influence the activity of cells in the T lineage.1 IL-7 stimulates the differentiation of multipotent (pluripotent) hematopoietic stem cells into lymphoid progenitor cells. It also stimulates proliferation of all cells in the lymphoid lineage (B and T lymphocytes and NK cells). IL-7 is not only a potent grown stimulus for pre-B cells, but also plays a role in T cell activation.2 IL-7 has significant clinical and biomedical potential, such as cancer therapy and HIV infections.3
