General description

IL-10 is an immunosuppressive cytokine produced by a variety of mammalian cell types including macrophages, monocytes, T cells, B cells and keratinocytes. IL-10 inhibits the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 and TNF-α. Like IL-4, IL-10 enhances humoral immune responses and attenuates cell-mediated immune reactions. Human IL-10 active on murine cells, but murine IL-10 is inactive on human cells. Recombinant human IL-10 is an 18.6 kDa protein of 161 amino acid residues.
Product Source: Protein is expressed in E.coli.
The protein is manufactured without the use of any animal products/reagents and is considered Animal-Free and can be used in protocols where possible transmisson of animal viruses and contamination must be avoided.

Quality

The ED50 was determined by the dosedependent co-stimulation (with human IL-4) of MC/9 cells. The expected ED50 is ≤ 2.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of ≥ 5 x 10^5
units/mg.

Physical form

Product is presented in 20 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.2. and is filtered through a 0.2 micron filter before lyophilization.
