This product, a Rabbit anti Mouse TNFα antibody, is specific for mouse Tumour Necrosis Factor alpha, a 17.3kDa multi-functional pro-inflammatory cytokine primarily secreted by macrophages, but also produced by T and B lymphocytes, activated monocytes and fibroblasts.
TNFα exists in both a transmembrane and mature soluble form and has many biological properties, including activation of transcription factor NF-KappaB, the induction of apoptosis in various tumour cell lines and the stimulation of cell differentiation and proliferation under certain conditions. Studies have revealed a role for TNFα in inflammation, septic shock, autoimmune disease and rheumatoid arthritis.
