Validation Data Gallery

• 

  WB analysis of human spleen using 66855-1-Ig (same clone as 66855-1-PBS)

  human spleen tissue were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 66855-1-Ig (IL6R alpha antibody) at dilution of 1:2000 incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours. This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 66855-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  WB analysis of human peripheral blood leukocyte using 66855-1-Ig (same clone as 66855-1-PBS)

  Human peripheral blood leukocyte were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 66855-1-Ig (IL6R alpha antibody) at dilution of 1:2000 incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours. This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 66855-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  IHC staining of human liver cancer using 66855-1-Ig (same clone as 66855-1-PBS)

  Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human liver cancer tissue slide using 66855-1-Ig (IL6R alpha antibody) at dilution of 1:400 (under 10x lens). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 66855-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  IHC staining of human liver cancer using 66855-1-Ig (same clone as 66855-1-PBS)

  Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human liver cancer tissue slide using 66855-1-Ig (IL6R alpha antibody) at dilution of 1:400 (under 40x lens). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 66855-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  IHC staining of human tonsillitis using 66855-1-Ig (same clone as 66855-1-PBS)

  Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human tonsillitis tissue slide using 66855-1-Ig (IL6R alpha antibody) at dilution of 1:400 (under 10x lens). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 66855-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

Background Information

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by a variety of cells during infection, trauma, and immunological challenge (PMID: 8274730). IL-6 acts via a receptor complex consisting of two distinct membrane-bound glycoproteins, an 80-kDa IL-6-binding subunit (IL-6R alpha, CD126, gp80) and a 130-kDa signal-transducing element (gp130, CD130). After binding of IL-6 to membrane-bound IL-6R alpha, the complex of IL-6 and IL-6R alpha associates with gp130, thus activating the receptor (PMID: 9716487). Expression of gp130 is found in almost all organs while expression of IL-6R alpha is predominantly confined to hepatocytes and leukocyte subpopulations (monocytes, neutrophils, T cells, and B cells) (PMID: 11149892). Soluble form of IL-6R alpha has been found in human serum and urine (PMID: 2529343; 1545125).
