Application Note:
This recombinant protein can be used for biological assays. For research use only.
Background:
Interleukin-17 is a potent pro-inflammatory cytokine produced by activated memory T cells. There are at least six members of the IL-17 family in humans and in mice. As IL-17 shares properties with IL-1 and TNF-alpha, it may induce joint inflammation and bone and cartilage destruction. This cytokine is found in synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and produced by rheumatoid arthritis synovium. It increases IL-6 production, induces collagen degradation and decreases collagen synthesis by synovium and cartilage and proteoglycan synthesis in cartilage. IL-17 is also able to increase bone destruction and reduce its formation. Blocking of interleukin-17 with specific inhibitors provides a protective inhibition of cartilage and bone degradation.
Biological Activity:
ED50 is approximately 2 ng/ml as determined by the dose-dependent induction of IL-6 in primary human foreskin fibroblasts.
Specific Activity of 5 x 105 IU/mg.
Buffer:
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 20mM PB, pH 7.4. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 ug/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.
