Macrophage Inflammatory Protein 3 beta (CCL19) Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Specifications

Product Data
Applications	ELISA, FN, WB
Recommend Dilution	Neutralization: To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of hMIP-3 beta (100 ng/ml), a concentration of 2.7 - 4.0 µg/ml of this antibody is required. ELISA: To detect hMIP-3 beta by direct ELISA (using 100 µl/well antibody solution) a concentration of at least 0.5 µg/ml of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant hMIP-3 beta. Western Blot: To detect hMIP-3 beta by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1-0.2 µg/ml. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hMIP-3 beta is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

Background	MIP3 chemokines are among many novel beta chemokines recently identified through bioinformatics in the Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) database. They are distantly related to other beta chemokines (20-30% aa sequence homology). MIP3 chemokines are useful probes for studying the biology of inflammation and cell migration. Their expression is strongly up-regulated by inflammatory signals and down-regulated by the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL10. MIP3 beta is also known as ELC (EBI1-1 ligand chemokine) and is constitutively expressed in various lymphoid tissues (thymus, lymph nodes, appendix and spleen). MIP3 beta is a chemoattractant for cultured human lymphocytes, dendritic cells, human T lymphoblastoid CEM NKR2 and hemopoietic progenitor cells. It may be involved in G Protein activation in human NK cells. MIP3 beta is a unique functional ligand for CCR7. The MIP3 beta gene has been mapped to chormosome 9p13.
Synonyms	C-C motif chemokine 19, CCL-19, ELC, MIP3B, MIP-3 beta, Small-inducible cytokine A19, SCYA19, Exodus-3
