IFN-beta Antibody (76703R) [Unconjugated]

Recombinant HumanIFN-beta (Catalog # 8499-IF)reduces theEncephalomyocarditis Virus(EMCV)-inducedcytopathy in theHeLa human cervical epithelialcarcinoma cell line in a dose-dependentmanner (orange line),as measured by crystal violetstaining. Inhibition of EMCVactivity elicited by RecombinantHuman IFN-beta (50 pg/mL) isneutralized (green line) byincreasing concentrations of Recombinant Human IFN-beta MonoclonalAntibody (Catalog # MAB814R).The ND50 is typically 7-21μg/mL.

Background

Interferon beta (IFN-beta ) is synthesized and secreted by fibroblasts and many other cell types in response to pathogens. IFN-beta binding to type I interferon receptors induces the upregulation of IRF-7 and activation of Rnase L. IRF-7 can exert a positive feedback on IFN-beta production. RNase L cleaves both viral and cellular single stranded mRNA, thereby limiting viral replication and dissemination.
