Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • ELISA
  • Flow Cytometry
  • Immunohistochemistry
  • Western Blot
• Application Notes: The antibody has been used in Western blot analysis to detect IL-16. It has been used in ELISA-type binding assays. The antibody has been used to stain endogenous IL-16 in sheets from murine ear skin after intradermal injection of TNF- alpha , and in flow cytometry to detect IL-16 on epidermal cells and emigrated cutaneous DC (Stoitzner et al, 2001).

Background

Interleukin-16 (IL-16, also known as lymphocyte chemoattractant factor (LCF)) is a CD8+ T cell-derived cytokine. It acts as a chemoattractant for CD4+ T-cells, monocytes and eosinophils. IL-16 has also been shown to suppress HIV-1 replication in vitro. It is expressed as a precursor molecule (pro-IL-16) in various tissues including spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, peripheral leukocytes, bone marrow and cerebellum. The active form is assumed to be a proteolytic cleavage product of pro-IL-16 existing, under physiological conditions, predominantly as a noncovalently linked multimer. The sequence and structure of IL-16 is conserved across species, human and murine IL-16 show significant cross-species reactivity.
