Scientific Background
Interleukin-22(IL-22) belongs to a group of cytokines called the IL-10 family or IL-10 superfamily (including IL-19, IL-20, IL-24, and IL-26) which are a class of potent mediators of cellular inflammatory responses. It shares use of IL-10R2 in cell signaling with other members of this family, such as IL-10, IL-26, IL-28A/B and IL-29. IL-22 is produced by activated DC and T cells and initiates innate immune responses against bacterial pathogens in epithelial cells such as those in the lung and gut.

Functional Activity
Measured by its ability to induce IL-10 secretion in COLO 205 (human colon carcinoma cells). The ED50 for this effect is less than 1 ng/ml.
Safety & Handling
This material is offered by USA Bioworld biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. For research use only.
This protein was produced in E. coli expression system. Expression system selection determines glycosylation profile, folding, and post-translational modifications. For cell-based stimulation assays, verify the expression system matches the glycosylation requirements of your target receptor or pathway.
Reconstituted in ddH2O or PBS at 100 μg/ml. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or PBS at 100 µg/mL as a standard starting concentration. Allow to dissolve at 4°C for 30 minutes without vortexing. Prepare working aliquots in 0.1% BSA carrier protein and store at −80°C.
This protein has been validated for functional bioactivity: Measured by its ability to induce IL-10 secretion in COLO 205 (human colon carcinoma cells). The ED50 for this effect is less than 1 ng/ml.. Optimal working concentrations may vary depending on your cell type, assay format, and culture conditions. Titrate the protein in a dose-response experiment to determine the optimal concentration for your system.
Endotoxin level is < 0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method. as determined by the LAL method. Low endotoxin is critical for cell-based studies because endotoxin activates NF-κB and TLR4 signalling in immune cells, producing artefactual cytokine induction that can completely mask the true biological activity of the recombinant protein.
Lyophilized recombinant human Interleukin-22 (IL-22) remains stable up to 6 months at -80°C from date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, human Interleukin-22 (IL-22) should be stable up to 1 week at 4°C Upon receipt, immediately store at −80°C. Prepare single-use working aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized protein is stable for 6–12 months at −80°C from the date of receipt.
