AHP780 is specific for human IL-4 (Interleukin-4), also known as B-cell stimulatory factor 1, a 129 amino acid pleiotropic cytokine which interacts with multiple cell lineages, including T cells, fibroblasts and haematopoietic cells, and is one of the most important factors involved in B cell IgG1 and IgE class switching.
IL-4 signalling through the IL-4 receptor (IL-4R), under the influence of Stat6, induces the differentiation of CD4+T cells into Th2 helper cells, which themselves then secrete IL-4 along with IL-5, IL-6, IL-10 and IL-13. Excessive secretion of IL-4 by Th2 helper cells has been linked with allergy and elevated IgE levels.

This product requires antigen retrieval using heat treatment prior to staining of paraffin sections. Sodium citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for this purpose.
Where this product 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 product 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-4 were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG prepared by affinity chromatography.
