Scientific Data Images for Human/Rhesus Macaque IL-18/IL-1F4 Antibody
Detection of Human IL‑18/IL‑1F4 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line, MCF 10A human breast epithelial cell line, A431 human epithelial carcinoma cell line, and HEK293T human embryonic kidney cell line (negative control cell line). PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Rhesus Macaque IL-18/IL-1F4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2548) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for IL-18/IL-1F4 at approximately 22 kDa (as indicated). GAPDH (Catalog # AF5718) is shown as a loading control. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.IL‑18/IL‑1F4 in Human PBMCs.
IL-18/IL-1F4 was detected in immersion fixed human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using Goat Anti-Human/Rhesus Macaque IL-18/IL-1F4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2548) at 5 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (green). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma parental cell line and IL-18/IL-1F4 knockout HeLa cell line, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for IL-18/IL-1F4 at approximately 29 kDa (as indicated) in the HeLa parental cell line using 50 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Rhesus Macaque IL-18/IL-1F4 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2548) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 2-40. kDa separation system.Applications for Human/Rhesus Macaque IL-18/IL-1F4 Antibody
Application
Recommended Usage
ELISA
This antibody functions as an ELISA detection antibody when paired with Mouse Anti-Human IL‑18/IL‑1F4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB91242).
This product is intended for assay development on various assay platforms requiring antibody pairs. We recommend the Human Total IL-18 DuoSet ELISA Kit (Catalog # DY318-05) for convenient development of a sandwich ELISA or the Human Total IL-18/IL-1F4 Quantikine ELISA Kit (Catalog # DL180) for a complete optimized ELISA.

Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑18/IL‑1F4-induced IFN‑ gamma secretion in the KG‑1 human acute myelogenous leukemia cell line. Novick, D. et al. (1999) Immunity 10(1):127. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.4‑1.2 µg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL Recombinant Rhesus Macaque IL‑18/IL‑1F4 and 20 ng/mL Recombinant Human TNF‑ alpha.
