General description
Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is an important cytokine that links innate and adaptive immunity. It plays a role in the regulation of Th1-associated cellular immunity to foreign pathogens, and humoral immunity to antigens that are both T cell-independent and T cell-dependent. IL-12 is primarily produced by innate immune cells, dendritic cells, epithelial cells and macrophages. All forms of IL-12 bind to the IL-12R which includes IL-12RbI and IL-12RbII subunits expressed on T cells and natural cells. IL-12 stimulates the production of IFN-γ and TNF-α, subsequent production of nitric oxide that leads to pathogen destruction. Reports suggest the involvement of JAK/STAT pathway components in mediating these effects. The effects of IL-12 have been implicated in bacterial, fungal and viral infections. Due to its role in inducing matrix metalloproteases, it also has important role in the etiology of chronic B-cell malignancies and lung adenocarcinomas
Anti-Interleukin-12 antibody recognizes mouse IL-12. It shows < 10% cross-reactivity with recombinant human IL-12 and < 5% cross-reactivity with recombinant porcine IL-12.
Anti-Interleukin-12 antibody recognizes mouse IL-12. It shows < 10% cross-reactivity with recombinant human IL-12 and < 5% cross-reactivity with recombinant porcine IL-12.
Specificity
The antibody will neutralize the biological activity of recombinant mouse IL-12. Based on ELISA, the antibody shows ~10% cross-reactivity with recombinant human IL-12 and <5% cross-reactivity with recombinant porcine IL-12.
Immunogen
purified, insect cell line Sf21-derived, recombinant mouse IL-12.
Application
Anti-Interleukin-12 antibody may be used for immunoblotting at a working concentration of 1-2 μg/ml. The antibody is also suitable for neutralization reactions. It has been used to neutralize IL-12 in the extracts of murine splenocytes.
Physical form
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline containing carbohydrates.
Preparation Note
Purified using protein G.

Monoclonal antibodies represent some of the most promising molecular targeted immunotherapies. However, understanding mechanisms by which tumors evade elimination by the immune system of the host presents a significant challenge for developing effective cancer immunotherapies.

Interleukin (IL)-12 is a pivotal cytokine that strongly stimulates Th1-associated cellular immunity. It is now recognized that IL-12 also activates humoral immunity to both T-dependent and T-independent antigens. This has let to considerable interest in exploiting IL-12 as a vaccine

The authors recount their discovery of how pathogen-induced interleukin 12 production leads to T(H)1 T cell polarization. Simultaneously they discovered the suppressive cytokine interleukin 10 inhibits antigen-presenting cells, thus regulating development of T(H)1 cells.

Chronic inflammation has long been associated with increased incidence of malignancy and similarities in the regulatory mechanisms have been suggested for more than a century.
