Clone REA638 recognizes the mouse interferon-γ (IFN-γ) antigen, a secreted protein which is produced by activated T, B, and NK cells. IFN-γ is a pleiotropic cytokine responsible for macrophage activation and differentiation. It induces transcription of several proinflammatory genes, such as inducible NO synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, and IL-1β, as well as MHC proteins. IFN-γ, in synergy with other cytokines such as TNF-α, inhibits proliferation of normal and transformed cells. Immunomodulatory effects of IFN-γ are exerted on a wide range of cell types expressing the high affinity receptors for IFN-γ.
Additional information: Clone REA638 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.
Alternative names
Gamma-interferon, IFN-gamma, IFNg
