Specifications
Host Species:
Rabbit
Species Reactivity:
Human
Homology:
Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Rat: (94%), Mouse: (88%)
Immunogen:
IL-11 antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide from near the amino terminus of human IL-11.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 40 - 90 of IL-11.
Conjugate:
Unconjugated
Tested Applications:
ELISA, ICC, IF, WB
Application Note:
IL-11 antibody can be used for the detection of IL-11 by Western blot at 1 - 2 μg/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunocytochemistry at 10 μg/ml.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples; Immunocytochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.
Specificity:
IL-11 antibody is human specific. At least two isoforms of IL-11 are known to exist; this antibody will only detect the longest isoform of IL-11.

Background:
Interleukin 11 is a pleiotropic cytokine that has multiple effects on both hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. Many of the biological effects described for IL-11 overlap those for IL-6 (1). It directly stimulates the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and megakaryocyte progenitor cells and induces megakaryocyte maturation resulting in increased platelet production (2). IL-11 promotes the proliferation of hepatocytes in response to liver damage. IL-11 binds to its receptor formed by IL6ST and either IL11RA1 or IL11RA2 (3). Clinically it is used to prevent severe thrombocytopenia and the reduction of the need for platelet transfusion following myelo-suppressive chemotherapy (4).
