Interleukin-6 stands as one of the most extensively studied cytokines in immunology and disease research, functioning as a central mediator of inflammation, immune regulation, and acute phase responses. This pleiotropic cytokine influences diverse biological processes including B cell differentiation, T cell activation, and hepatocyte stimulation, making it a critical target for researchers investigating inflammatory disorders, autoimmune conditions, and cancer biology.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody against IL-6, clone 23B7, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Developed using recombinant technology with a defined human IgG1 framework, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability inherent in traditional hybridoma-derived reagents, ensuring your results remain comparable across extended studies and collaborative projects.
Validation across multiple platforms demonstrates the versatility of this antibody in diverse experimental contexts. Immunohistochemistry studies in human tonsil and spleen tissues reveal clear detection of IL-6 at 1:50 dilution using citrate buffer antigen retrieval, highlighting its utility for examining cytokine expression in lymphoid tissues. Immunofluorescence analysis in NIH/3T3 cells confirms performance in cell-based assays, while flow cytometry validation using 786-O renal carcinoma cells demonstrates reliable intracellular detection with appropriate fixation and permeabilization protocols. The antibody exhibits cross-species reactivity with both human and mouse samples, supporting translational research designs.
Whether investigating IL-6 signaling in tumor microenvironments, characterizing inflammatory responses in tissue sections, or quantifying cytokine expression at the single-cell level, this affinity-purified antibody provides a dependable tool for advancing your understanding of IL-6 biology in health and disease.
