Product Specific Information

Store vial at 4°C prior to restoration. For extended storage, aliquot contents and freeze at -20°C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature.
This product is stable for several weeks at 4°C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

In ELISA and other immunoreactive assays, this antibody will recognize both native and recombinant human IL-32A in cell supernatants and certain body fluids. A control of similarly diluted normal rabbit IgG is recommended.

Target Information

Interleukin-32 (IL-32) was initially identified as a transcript (NK4) selectively expressed in lymphocytes and NK cells, with expression increased following activation by IL-2. It was later re-isolated from an IL-18-treated lung carcinoma cell line and renamed IL-32.
IL-32 does not share sequence homology with known cytokine families and is highly expressed in immune tissues, existing in at least four differentially spliced isoforms.

Treatment of human monocytic and mouse macrophage cells with IL-32 induces several proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-8, and MIP-2. It is also induced in human peripheral lymphocyte cells after mitogen stimulation and in epithelial cells by IFN-γ.
These properties suggest that IL-32 may play a role in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.
