The term interleukin derives from as a means of communication, and deriving from the fact that many of these proteins are produced by leukocytes and act on leukocytes. The name is something of a relic though (the term was coined by Dr. Paetkau, University of Victoria); it has since been found that interleukins are produced by a wide variety of body cells. The function of the immune system depends in a large part on interleukins, and rare deficiencies of a number of them have been described, all featuring autoimmune diseases or immune deficiency. The majority of interleukins are synthesized by helper CD4+ T lymphocytes, as well as through monocytes, macrophages, and endothelial cells. They promote the development and differentiation of T, B, and hematopoietic cells.;Description:Mouse Anti-IL-4 Monoclonal Antibody;Host Species:Mouse;Species Reactivity:Virus;Clone#:11-71;Isotype:IgG1;Application:EIA, IP;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C.
