IL-4R alpha/CD124 蛋白, Human (HEK293)

IL-4R alpha is a subunit alpha shared by IL-4 and IL-13 receptors, found in leukocytes originally. IL-4R alpha couples to the JAK1/2/3-STAT6 pathway and involves in promoting Th2 differentiation^[1]. IL-4R alpha/CD124, Human consists of 825 amino acids (M1-S825) with a transmembrane domain (233-256 a.a) and a soluble form (1-227 a.a). Soluble IL-4R (sIL-4R) inhibits IL4-mediated cell proliferation and IL-5 up-regulation by T-cells^[1]. IL-4R alpha/CD124, Human (G24-H232) is produced in HEK293 cells with a full length of 209 amino acids.

白介素 4R α (IL-4Rα) 也称为 CD124 和 B 细胞刺激因子 (BSF) 受体，是一种抗炎细胞因子，在活化的 T 细胞中高表达^[1]。
IL-4R α 参与不同细胞类型中两种白细胞介素受体的形成。对于I型受体，依赖于IL-4Rα结合IL-4来招募免疫细胞中的IL-2Rγ链。IL-2R γ 是多种白细胞介素受体的常见亚基，参与 IL-15 刺激中性粒细胞的吞噬作用。对于II型受体，依赖IL-4Rα结合IL-4来募集IL-13Rα1链。IL-13R α 1 是非免疫细胞中常见细胞因子受体 γ 链的替代辅助蛋白^[2][3]。
人类 IL-4R α 蛋白中的氨基酸与小鼠 (53.35%) 或大鼠 (52.82%) 有很大不同。
IL-4 R α 通过交替剪接或蛋白水解产生可溶形式，保持配体结合特性并抑制IL-4的生物活性。IL-4 R α 可溶性亚型 1 可以通过金属蛋白酶在细胞表面进行蛋白水解裂解（脱落）来产生^[4]。
IL-4 R α 在 Th2 中发挥重要作用- 免疫反应偏向、巨噬细胞活化、粘膜免疫、过敏性炎症、肿瘤进展和动脉粥样硬化^[5]。

Interleukin-4Rα (IL-4Rα) shows promotion of Th2 cytokine and IgE response without hIL-4, and fails to expel N. brasiliensis worms in transgenic mice (hIL-4RαTg/mIL-4Rα-/-) infected with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis^[8].

Interleukin-4Rα (IL-4Rα) contains a immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIM), plays a functional role in the regulation of IL-4-induced proliferation, ablation of ITIM results in a hyperproliferative response to IL-4 stimulation in 32D/IRS-2 cells expressing mutant IL-4R α-chains (△712 and Y713F)^[6].
Recombinant sIL-4R (10 ng/mL; 3 d) inhibits IL-4-mediated proliferation and IL-5 upregulation by T cells^[7].

1. The ED₅₀ is <70 ng/mL, measured in a neutralization assay using TF-1 cells in the presence of 0.5 ng/mL h-IL-4.
2. Measured by its ability to inhibit IL-4-dependent proliferation of TF-1 human erythroleukemic cells. The ED₅₀ this effect is 3.143 ng/mL in the presence of 0.2 ng/mL IL4, corresponding to a specific activity is 3.18×10⁵ units/mg.

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

无菌粉末.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS or 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
