Description

The AIO.3 antibody reacts with mouse IL-15. This is a neutralizing antibody. Mouse IL-15 is a 14-15 kDa factor, previously known as IL-T. IL-15 is produced by a variety of cells and has a role in the T cell-mediated immune response and the central nervous system. IL-15 binds to the β and γ subunits of the IL-2 receptor; however, these two cytokines have distinct biological activities. IL-15 is a specific maturation factor for NK cells and mimics the BM microenvironment for NK cell development in vitro. It is reported that IL-15 delivers an anti-apoptotic and survival signal for NK, T, and B cells.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The AIO.3 antibody is reported for use in neutralization of mouse IL-15 bioactivity.

Applications Tested

The Functional Grade Purified AIO.3 antibody has been tested by LAL assay to verify low endotoxin levels and in bioassay for neutralization of mouse IL-15 bioactivity.

The AIO.3 antibody at 0.39 ug/ml has been found to inhibit by 50% the biological effects of 50 ng/ml mouse IL-15 (14-8151) in a CTLL2 proliferation assay. Detailed information and protocols about cytokine bioassays and in vitro cytokine neutralization using antibodies can be found in the BestProtocols section.
It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
