Purified NA/LE Mouse Anti-Mouse IL-17F
Neutralization of mouse IL-17F biological activity with MM17F8F5, a Mouse Anti-Mouse IL-17F monoclonal antibody. In a 96-well microplate, biologically-active recombinant mouse IL-17F protein (0.2 μg/well) was preincubated (1 hr, 37°C) with serial dilutions of Purified NA/LE Mouse Anti-Mouse IL-17F antibody (Cat. No. 563592; μg/ml) or tissue culture medium (as a control). Following the incubation, cells from the NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic cell line were added at 5 x 10^4 cells per well and were cultured at 37°C. After 24 hours of culture, the supernatants from each well were harvested and their concentrations of IL-6 were quantified using a BD™ Cytometric Bead Array Mouse IL-6 Flex Set (Cat. No. 558301). As the MM17F8F5 antibody was serially diluted, a neutralizing Anti-Mouse IL-17F antibody dose-response relationship was observed as shown in the figure.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. This preparation contains no preservatives, thus it should be handled under aseptic conditions.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.

MM17F8F5

The MM17F8F5 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Interleukin-17F (IL-17F) and can neutralize its biological activity. IL-17F is a member of the IL-17 family of cytokines. Among IL-17 family members, IL-17F has the highest amino acid sequence homology to IL-17A. IL-17F is produced by activated CD4+ T helper (Th17) cells, CD8+ T (Tc17) cells and γδ T cells. IL-17F can be secreted as homodimers or as heterodimers with IL-17A. IL-17F and IL-17A have overlapping functions such as inducing epithelial cells and fibroblasts to produce proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines including IL-6, GM-CSF, CXCL1, CCL2, and CCL7. These factors attract and activate neutrophils and other cell types that mediate protective responses against pathogenic microbes or pathologic allergic or autoimmune diseases. IL-17 gene knockout studies have shown that IL-17F and IL-17A have independent functions as well. IL-17F and IL-17A exert their biological function by binding to and signaling through IL-17 receptors comprised of the transmembrane receptor subunits, IL-17RA (CD217) and IL-17RC.

NA/LE
NA/LE refers to the culture and purification methods and buffer used to produce purified antibodies with no azide and low endotoxin: Aqueous buffered solution containing no preservative, 0.2µm sterile filtered. Endotoxin level is ≤0.01 EU/µg (≤0.001 ng/µg) of protein as determined by the LAL assay.NA/LE are perfectly suited to be used in culture or in vivo (for nonhuman studies) for functional assays — blocking, neutralizing, activation or depletion — where the presence of azide may damage cells or exogenous endotoxin may signal or activate cells.
