Interleukin-4 (IL-4), produced primarily by CD4(+) T cells, is an immunomodulatory cytokine, which can inhibit the growth of tumour cells. IL-4 has been known as a Th2 cytokine and can act on B cells, T cells, and monocytes. IL-4 exhibits antitumor activity in rodent experimental gliomas, which is likely mediated by the actions of IL-4 on a variety of immune cells present in and around the tumor masses. Recombinant Human IL-4 produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain. Animal Free: This product is produced with no animal-derived raw products, animal free equipment and animal free protocols.

Additional Information:

Produced using animal free raw components and processes, in a non-mammalian system. Ideal for researchers concerned about the risks and effects of contaminating viruses, prions and trace growth factors from FBS and animal-derived ingredients used in standard recombinant protein production techniques. Endotoxin levels are less than 1.0 EU per ug protein via LAL. Bioactivity is comparable to recombinant protein produced in traditional techniques.
