Gene Information

human ... IL4(3565)

General description

IL-4 is a pleiotropic cytokine that regulates diverse T and B cell responses including cell proliferation, survival and gene expression. Produced by mast cells, T cells and bone marrow stromal cells, IL-4 regulates the differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into helper Th2 cells, characterized by their cytokine-secretion profile that includes secretion of IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-13, which favor a humoral immune response. Another dominant function of IL-4 is the regulation of immunoglobulin class switching to the IgG1 and IgE isotypes. Excessive IL-4 production by Th2 cells has been associated with elevated IgE production and allergy. Recombinant human IL-4 is a 14.9 kDa globular protein containing 129 amino acid residues.

Application

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) has been used as a stimulant of M2 state of microglia that is associated with wound healing and debris clearance.

Biochem/physiol Actions

IL-4 is a pleiotropic cytokine that regulates diverse T and B cell responses including cell proliferation, survival and gene expression. Recombinant human IL-4 is a 14.9 kDa globular protein containing 129 amino acid residues.

Physical form

Lyophilized with no additives.

Preparation Note

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a stabilizer (example 5% Trehalose) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

Questions

  1. After the initial reconstitution in water, can this be diluted in PBS with 10% FBS?

    1 answer
    1. Further dilution in PBS with 10% FBS is a suitable option. Storing the solution with a stabilizer is recommended. As FBS contains BSA, this would be a suitable stabilizer. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
