Recombinant Human IL-11 / interleukin 11 Protein (Catalog#12225-HNCE)
Preparation
This antibody was produced from a hybridoma resulting from the fusion of a mouse myeloma with B cells obtained from a mouse immunized with purified, recombinant Human IL-11 / interleukin 11 (rh IL-11 / interleukin 11; Catalog#12225-HNCE; AAH12506.1; Pro22-Leu199). The IgG fraction of the cell culture supernatant was purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.

Background Information
Full Name
interleukin 11
Description
IL11 is a multifunctional cytokine first isolated in 199 from bone marrow-derived stromal cells. It is a key regulator of multiple events in hematopoiesis, most notably the stimulation of megakaryocyte maturation. IL11 is also known under the names adipogenesis inhibitory factor (AGIF) and oprelvekin. IL11 can improve platelet recovery after chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia, induce acute-phase proteins, modulate antigen-antibody responses, participate in the regulation of bone cell proliferation and differentiation, and could be used as a therapeutic for osteoporosis. IL11 stimulates the growth of certain lymphocytes and, in the murine model, stimulates an increase in the cortical thickness and strength of long bones. As a signaling molecule, IL11 has a variety of functions associated with its receptor interleukin 11 receptor alpha; such functions include placentation and to some extent of decidualization.
