Purity
|
> 97 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.
|
Biological Activity
|
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The specific activity is determined by inducing STAT3 activation using human U-87 MG cells. 5 ng/mL of rHuIL-31 can effectively induce STAT3 activation.
|
Physical Appearance
|
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
|
Formulation
|
重组人白介素-31蛋白Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH7.4.
|
Endotoxin
|
Less than 1 EU/µg of rHuIL-31 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 ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
|
Storage
|
重组人白介素-31蛋白This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 °C, but should be kept at -20 °C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8 °C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 °C to -70 °C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Background
|
Human IL-31 gene is located on Chr.12. It expresses the IL-31 protein at low levels in the type 2 helper T cells, which exits in testis, bone marrow, skeletal muscle, kidney, colon, thymus, small intestine and trachea. This protein shares several structural and functional characteristics with IL-6, Oncostatin M, LIF, and Cardiotrophin-1. IL-31 signals through IL-31 receptor A and oncostatin M receptor subunits and can activate STAT3 through receptors and maybe involve in skin immunity. It regulated immune responses have been implicated in skin physiology and inflammatory skin diseases. Human IL-31 shares 24 % a.a. sequence identity in the mature protein with mouse IL-31.
