Interleukin-12 and Interleukin-23 are heterodimeric cytokines that share the p40 subunit (IL-12B), making them central players in immune regulation and inflammatory responses. IL-12, composed of p35 and p40 subunits, drives Th1 differentiation and IFN-γ production, while IL-23 promotes Th17 cell maintenance and is implicated in autoimmune pathologies. The shared p40 subunit makes these cytokines attractive therapeutic targets and essential subjects in immunology research exploring infection, cancer immunity, and inflammatory disease mechanisms.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 14D4, offers researchers the reproducibility and consistency that recombinant technology provides. Unlike traditional hybridoma-derived antibodies, this sequence-defined reagent ensures lot-to-lot uniformity, eliminating variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The human IgG1 isotype format and affinity-chromatography purification deliver a high-quality reagent suitable for demanding experimental workflows.
Validation data demonstrates robust performance across multiple applications. Functional ELISA testing confirms strong binding activity, with immobilized human IL-12B and IL-12A protein showing an EC50 of 1.042–1.545 ng/mL, indicating excellent sensitivity for detection assays. For tissue-based studies, immunohistochemistry validation in paraffin-embedded human lymph node tissue at 1:50–1:200 dilutions reveals clear target localization, with optimized antigen retrieval using citrate buffer at pH 6.0 on the Leica Bond system.
The antibody is supplied in a glycerol-based PBS buffer with Proclin 300 preservative, ensuring stability during storage at -20°C or -80°C. Researchers investigating cytokine biology, immune cell differentiation, inflammatory disorders, or therapeutic antibody development will find this reagent particularly valuable for characterizing IL-12/IL-23 pathway components in human samples.
