Recombinant :
Recombinant Human Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (rHu IL-1ra) Source :
Escherichia coli Molecular Weight :
Approximately 17.0 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 153 amino acids. Purity :
>95% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses. Biological Activity :
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by the dose-dependant inhibition of IL-1 stimulation of D10S cells was found to be 0.5 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of ＞2.0 x 106 IU/mg. Physical Appearance :
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Formulation :
Lyophilized from a 0.2m filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. AA Sequence :

Less than 1EU/g of rHuIL-1ra as determined by LAL method. Reconstitution :
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at <-20C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. Storage :
This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8C, but should be kept at -20C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20C to -70C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Usage :
This material is offered by USA Bioworld biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. NOT FOR HUMAN USE. Made in China Description :
Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) is a member of the IL-1 family. Endogenous IL-1ra is produced in numerous animal disease models as well as in human autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases. It binds to IL-1 receptors in competition with IL-1, but does not elicit intracellular response from this binding. Its role in counteracting the proinflammatory effects of IL-1 is being studied by numerous research groups. IL-4 and IL-13 have been shown to amplify the stimulatory effect of IL1-beta on the production of soluble and intracellular forms of IL1-ra.The regulated expression of IL1ra in various cell types has been shown to be influenced by cytokines. In synovial fibroblasts the synthesis of IL-1ra is markedly enhanced by IL-1 , TNF-alpha , or PDGF.
