Anti-IL-34 Antibody

Interleukin-34 (IL-34) was identified through a functional screening of a library of secreted proteins after transfection of an embryonic kidney cell line with recombinant cDNAs. Flow cytometry and monocyte viability assays demonstrated increased survival and/or proliferation of monocytes induced by IL-34 and specific binding of IL-34 to CD14+ monocytes. IL-34 is a second ligand to the colony stimulating factor (CSF)-1 receptor in addition to CSF1. Like CSF1, IL-34 stimulates phosphorylation of ERK1 and ERK2 in human monocytes and induces differentiation of bone marrow cells into macrophages.

Epitope: N-terminus

KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human IL-34.

Evaluated by Western Blotting in human brain tissue lysate with and without blocking peptide.

Western Blotting Analysis: 0.25 μg/mL of this antibody detected IL-34 in human brain tissue lysate with and without blocking peptide.

~47 kDa observed. Despite its predicted molecular weight of 27 kDa, IL-34 will often run at higher molecular weight in SDS-PAGE.

Antigen Affinity Purified

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing PBS with up to 0.1% sodium azide.

Stable for 1 year at 2-8°C from date of receipt.

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
