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.
Immunogen
Epitope: N-terminus
KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human IL-34.
Application
Anti-IL-34 Antibody detects level of IL-34 & has been published & validated for use in IL-34.
Research Category Inflammation & Immunology
Research Sub Category Immunoglobulins & Immunology
Quality
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.
