Animal-Free Recombinant Human IL-7 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-200-07). IL-7 is a hematopoietic growth factor that primarily affects early B and T cells. Produced by thymic stromal cells, spleen cells and keratinocytes, IL-7 can also co-stimulate the proliferation of mature T cells in combination with other factors, such as ConA and IL-2. Human and murine IL-7 are cross-species reactive. Recombinant Human IL-7 is a 17.5 kDa protein containing 153 amino acid residues.

Animal-Free Recombinant Human IL-17E (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-200-24). IL-17E is a disulfide-linked homodimer of two 145 amino acid polypeptide chains. It belongs to the IL-17 family of structurally-related cytokines that share a highly conserved C-terminal region, but differ from one another in their N-terminal regions and in their distinct biological roles. The six known members of this family, IL-17A through IL-17F, are secreted as homodimers. IL-17E stimulates secretion of IL-8, and induces activation of the transcription factor NF-kappaB in cells that express the IL-17BR receptor. Recombinant Human IL-17E is a 33.8 kDa disulfide-linked homodimer of two 146 amino acid polypeptide chains.

Animal-Free Recombinant Human IL-17F (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-200-25). IL-17F, a member of the IL-17 family of structurally related cytokines, has been shown to stimulate the proliferation and activation of T cells and PBMCs. IL-17F also regulates cartilage matrix turnover and inhibits angiogenesis. The mature human IL-17F is a homodimeric protein with a total weight of 30.1 kDa, consisting of two 133 amino acid residue chains. E.coli-derived Recombinant Human IL-17F is a biologically active, non-glycosylated, disulfide-linked homodimeric protein containing 268 amino acids (30.1 kDa), including N-terminal methionine residues.

Animal-Free Recombinant Murine IL-10 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-210-10). IL-10 is an immunosuppressive cytokine produced by a variety of mammalian cell types including macrophages, monocytes, T cells, B cells and keratinocytes. IL-10 inhibits the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 and TNF-alpha. Like IL-4, IL-10 enhances humoral immune responses and attenuates cell-mediated immune reactions. Human IL-10 is active on murine cells, but murine IL-10 is inactive on human cells. Recombinant Murine IL-10 is an 18.7 kDa protein of 161 amino acid residues.

Animal-Free Recombinant Murine IL-21 (Legacy Tebubio ref. 167AF-210-21). IL-21 is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by CD4+ T cells in response to antigenic stimulation. Its action generally enhances antigen-specific responses of immune cells. The biological effects of IL-21 include: inducing the differentiation of T cell-stimulated B cells into plasma cells and memory B cells; the stimulation of IgG production in conjunction with IL-4; and the induction of apoptotic effects in naive B cells and stimulated B cells in the absence of T-cell signaling. Additionally, IL-21 promotes the anti-tumor activity of CD8+ T cells and NK cells. IL-21 exerts its effect through binding to a specific type I cytokine receptor, IL-21R, which also contains the gamma chain (gammac) found in other cytokine receptors, including IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9 and IL-15. The IL-21/IL-21R interaction triggers a cascade of events, which includes activation of the tyrosine kinases JAK1 and JAK3, followed by activation of t
