Description
Interleukin-6 is a pleiotropic cytokine central to JAK/STAT3 signaling, acute-phase responses, and B-cell differentiation, making precise functional reagents essential for mechanistic immunology studies. This tag-free recombinant mouse IL-6, encompassing the full mature sequence (25–211 aa), demonstrates exceptional potency with an ED50 below 0.02 ng/mL in 7TD1 proliferation assays, corresponding to a specific activity exceeding 5 × 10⁷ IU/mg — a level that supports use in dose-dependent proliferation assays, STAT3 phosphorylation studies, and NF-κB pathway dissection at minimal working concentrations. Endotoxin levels below 1.0 EU/μg effectively mitigate LPS-driven artifacts in sensitive immune cell cultures, making this protein appropriate for primary B-cell differentiation experiments, in vivo inflammation models, and as a quantitative reference standard in cytokine detection assays. Purity exceeding 97% by SDS-PAGE, combined with this stringent endotoxin profile, satisfies the criteria typical for antibody validation workflows including ELISA coating and functional blocking studies.
