Interleukin-8, also known as CXCL8, serves as a critical chemokine in the inflammatory response, functioning primarily as a potent neutrophil chemoattractant and activator. This multifaceted signaling molecule plays essential roles in immune cell recruitment, angiogenesis, and tumor microenvironment modulation, making it a key target for researchers investigating inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular conditions, and cancer biology. The protein exists in multiple processed forms following cleavage, each with distinct biological activities that contribute to its complex regulatory functions.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 33A9, offers researchers the reproducibility and consistency that modern experimental workflows demand. Generated through recombinant technology using a synthesized peptide derived from human IL8 as the immunogen, this rabbit IgG antibody provides sequence-defined specificity that eliminates the lot-to-lot variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived reagents. The affinity-chromatography purification ensures high purity suitable for sensitive detection methods.
Flow cytometry validation demonstrates clear performance in detecting intracellular IL8 in human U937 monocytic cells. Testing with fixed and permeabilized cells at a 1:50 dilution showed distinct positive signal separation from isotype control, confirming specific target recognition in this established human cell line model. The recommended working range of 1:50 to 1:200 for flow cytometry applications provides flexibility for optimization across different experimental conditions. The antibody is also validated for ELISA applications, expanding its utility across multiple detection platforms.
For investigators studying neutrophil biology, tumor-associated inflammation, or cardiovascular disease mechanisms, this antibody provides a reliable tool for characterizing IL8 expression patterns in human samples with the experimental consistency that rigorous research requires.
