General description

IL-8 (interleukin-8), also called CXCL8, is an α chemokine belonging to the cysteine-x-cysteine (CXC) chemokine subfamily. It is a pro-inflammatory cytokine and is secreted by multiple types of tissues and blood cells such as, monocytes, neutrophils, tissue macrophages, T-lymphocytes, endothelial and epithelial cells, and fibroblasts. It is pro-angiogenic and tumorigenic, and is produced by cancer cells such as, colorectal cancer cells.

Immunogen Sequence: GI # 124359, sequence 28-99
Recombinant interleukin-8

Application

Anti-Interleukin-8 antibody produced in chicken is suitable for indirect ELISA and western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Interleukin-8 (IL 8) is a proinflammatory chemokine that activates multiple signaling pathways. The exosomes released from chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells stimulate bone marrow stromal cells to produce IL 8. It plays a very important regulatory function in tumorigenesis. Its polymorphism is associated with a significantly increased risk of cancers and may be useful for cancer susceptibility studies.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 0.02% sodium azide.

Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein with constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. Exosomes are nanovesicles released by cancer cells that are involved in cell-to-cell communication thus potentially affecting cancer progression. It is well known

Emerging evidences show that interleukin-8 (IL-8) has important regulatory functions in tumorigenesis. IL-8 -251A/T is a single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of the IL-8 gene and affects IL-8 production. Analysis of previous studies on the association of -251A/T
