Scientific Data Images for Human IL-1ra/IL-1F3 Antibody

Detection of Human IL-1ra/IL-1F3 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human IL‑1ra/IL‑1F3 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of RT-4 human bladder carcinoma cell line and A431 human epithelial carcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human IL-1ra/IL-1F3 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-280-NA) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for IL-1ra/IL-1F3 at approximately 18-20 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
IL-1ra/IL-1F3 antibody in Human Skin by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

IL‑1ra/IL‑1F3 in Human Skin.

IL-1ra/IL-1F3 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human skin using Goat Anti-Human IL-1ra/IL-1F3 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-280-NA) at 5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to keratinocytes.

Detection of Human and Mouse IL-1ra/IL-1F3 antibody by Simple WesternTM.

Detection of Human and Mouse IL‑1ra/IL‑1F3 by Simple WesternTM.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of RT-4 human bladder carcinoma cell line, A431 human epithelial carcinoma cell line, human skin cancer tissue, and mouse skin cancer tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for IL-1ra/IL-1F3 at approximately 24-26 kDa (as indicated) using 20 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human IL-1ra/IL-1F3 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-280-NA) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Neutralization

Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑1ra/IL‑1F3 inhibition of IL‑1 alpha/IL‑1F1-dependent proliferation in the D10.G4.1 mouse helper T cell line. Symons, J.A. et al. (1987) in Lymphokines and Interferons, a Practical Approach. Clemens, M.J. et al. (eds): IRL Press. 272. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically ≤4 µg/mL in the presence of 50 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL‑1ra/IL‑1F3 and 50 pg/mL Recombinant Human IL‑1 alpha/IL‑1F1.

Background: IL-1ra/IL-1F3

IL-1ra was originally isolated from the urine of patients with monocytic leukemia and has also been purified from adherent monocytes. The naturally occurring, fully glycosylated form has an apparent molecular weight of about 25,000 Daltons. The protein shows 26% amino acid homology to IL-1 beta and 19% homology to IL-1 alpha. It will compete with either factor for receptor binding, but does not interact with either one. Human IL-1ra will bind to both types of IL-1 receptor (I and II) on human cells, but reportedly will not block binding to the type II receptor on murine pre-B cell lines. The recombinant, non-glycosylated form of IL-1ra blocks binding of IL-1 to its receptor equally as well as the naturally-occurring, glycosylated form. The IL-1ra has been shown to block the inflammatory responses induced by IL-1 both in vitro and in vivo. Currently, pre-clinical and clinical studies are underway to test possible therapeutic applications for IL-1ra in the treatment of sepsis, rheumatoid arthritis and chronic myelogenous leukemia.
