General description

Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) also refers as cachectin is a cytokine produced in response to immunological challenges such as bacteria (lipopolysaccharides), parasites, mitogens, viruses and other cytokines. It has essential roles in antitumor activity, inflammation, septic shock, immune modulation, anorexia, cachexia, hematopoiesis and viral replication. It also facilitates the growth of human fibroblasts, collagenase production as well as can activates polymorphonuclear neutrophils and osteoclasts. Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-α antibody can be used in neutralization and immunoblotting (working concentration-0.1-0.2 μg/ml) for detecting porcine TNF-α. Goat anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-α antibody reacts specifically with recombinant porcine tumor necrosis factor α.

Specificity

The antibody neutralizes the biological activity of recombinant porcine TNF-α.

Immunogen

recombinant porcine TNF-α expressed in Escherichia coli.

Application

Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-α antibody can be used in immunohistochemistry and indirect ELISA.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of phosphate buffered saline.

When leukocytes are exposed to mitogens or antigens in vitro, they release bone-resorbing activity into the culture supernatants which can be detected by bioassay. Like many lymphocyte-monocyte products, this activity has been difficult to purify because of its low abundance

Modulation of the growth of human and murine cell lines in vitro by recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-alpha (rTNF-alpha) and recombinant human interferon-gamma (rIFN-gamma) was investigated. rTNF-alpha had cytostatic or cytolytic effects on only some tumor cell lines. When administered
