Human Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is expressed by the IL13 gene located on the chromosome 5 and secreted by many cell types, especially T helper type 2 (Th2) cells. The high solution from of IL-13 reported to be a monomer with two internal disulfide bonds that contribute to a bundled four α-helix configuration. Targeted deletion of IL-13 in mice resulted in impaired Th2 cell development and indicated an important role for IL-13 in the expulsion of gastrointestinal parasites. IL-13 exerts anti-inflammatory effects on monocytes and macrophages and it inhibits the expression of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, IL-6 and IL-8. IL-13 has also been shown to enhance B cell proliferation and to induce isotype switching resulting in increased production of IgE. Human, mouse and rat IL-3 share low homology, but have cross species activity.

Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Stability & Storage
Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70°C as supplied.
- 1 month, 2 to 8°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
- 3 months, -20 to -70°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4 with 5% trehalose.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in 20 mM HCl to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20°C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Biological Activity
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using human TF-1 cells is less than 1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0×106 IU/mg.
Shipping Condition
Gel pack.
Handling
Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.
Usage
For Research Use Only! Not to be used in humans.
