| Introduction | |
| IL-16 is a pleiotropic cytokine that functions as a chemoattractant, a modulator of T cell activation, and an inhibitor of HIV replication. The signaling process of IL-16 is mediated by CD4. The product of this gene undergoes proteolytic processing, which is found to yield two functional proteins. IL-16 functions exclusively attributed to the secreted C-terminal peptide, while the N-terminal product may play a role in cell cycle control. Caspase 3 is reported to be involved in the proteolytic processing of this protein. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. IL-16 stimulates a migratory response in cd4+ lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils. Also induces t-lymphocyte expression of interleukin 2 receptor, ligand for cd4. | |
| Source | |
| Escherichia Coli. | |
| Physical Appearance | |
| Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. | |
| Formulation | |
| IL-16 was lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. | |
| Stability | |
| Lyophilized Interleukin-16 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IL16 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | |
| Purity | |
| Greater than 97.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis SDS-PAGE. | |

| Biological Activity | |
| Fully biologically active when compared to standard. Determined by its ability to chemoattract human CD4+ T-Lymphocytes using a concentration range of 50.0-100.0 ng/ml. | |
| Solubility | |
| It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interleukin-16 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | |
| Precautions | |
| IL 15 Rat is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. | |
