This antibody is specific for human IL-1 alpha (Interleukin-1 alpha), an 18kDa multi-functional pro-inflammatory cytokine which belongs to the IL-1 family of proteins, and is produced by a variety of cells including activated macrophages, monocytes and keratinocytes.
IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta have been identified as two distinct IL-1 proteins which bind to the same type 1 Interleukin 1 receptor (IL1R1). Biological properties of IL-1 alpha include stimulation of thymocyte proliferation by induction of IL-2 release, B-cell proliferation and maturation, and fibroblast growth factor activity.
This antibody has been shown to neutralise IL-1 alpha activity in a bioassay.

This product requires enzyme mediated antigen retrieval prior to staining of parrafin sections. Proteinase K is recomended for this purpose.
Where this antibody has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the antibody for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Storage
Prior to reconstitution store at +4oC.
After reconstitution store at -20oC.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
12 months from date of reconstitution
Antiserum Preparation
Antisera to human IL-1 alpha were raised by repeated immunisation of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG prepared by affinity chromatography.
