Overview
Interleukin-6 Antibody is an antibody targeting Interleukin-6. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: IL6/4647. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: Interleukin-6.
- Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 1-200 from the human IL-6 protein was used as the immunogen for the Interleukin-6 antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Cytoplasm, extracellular.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
IL-6 is a potent lymphoid cell growth factor that stimulates the growth and survivability of certain B-cells and T-cells. It plays a critical role in B-cell differentiation to plasma cells and is a potent growth factor for plasmacytoma and myeloma. IL-6 is produced by a variety of cell types, including monocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells.
Common research applications
- IHC: tissue distribution assessment; interpret with matched controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
