Scientific Data Images for Human IL-2 Antibody (5343)

Detection of IL‑2 in Human PBMCs by Flow Cytometry.

Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated with Cell Activation Cocktail 500x (Catalog # 5476) for 5 hours were stained with (A) Mouse Anti-Human IL-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB10442) or (B) Mouse IgG1 isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB002) followed by Anti-Mouse IgG APC-conjugated Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B) and Mouse anti-Human CD3 PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB100P). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized using FlowX FoxP3/Transcription Factor Fixation & Perm Buffer Kit (Catalog # FC012).

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL-2 and Neutralization by Human IL-2 Antibody.

Recombinant Human IL-2 (202-IL) stimulates proliferation in the CTLL-2 mouse cytotoxic T cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line) as measured by Resazurin (AR002). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-2 (2 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse Anti-Human IL-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB10442). The ND₅₀ is typically 0.05-0.5 µg/mL.

Applications for Human IL-2 Antibody (5343)

Application

Recommended Usage

CyTOF-ready

Ready to be labeled using established conjugation methods. No BSA or other carrier proteins that could interfere with conjugation.

Intracellular Staining by Flow Cytometry

0.25 µg/10⁶ cells
Sample: Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated with Cell Activation Cocktail 500x (Catalog # 5476) for 5 hours

Neutralization

Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑2-induced proliferation in the CTLL‑2 mouse cytotoxic T cell line. Gearing, A.J.H. and C.B. Bird (1987) in Lymphokines and Interferons, A Practical Approach. Clemens, M.J. et al. (eds): IRL Press. 276. The Neutralization Dose (ND₅₀) is typically 0.05-0.5 µg/mL in the presence of 2 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL‑2.

Shipping

Lyophilized product is shipped at ambient temperature. Liquid small pack size (-SP) is shipped with polar packs. Upon receipt, store immediately at the temperature recommended below.

Stability & Storage

Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied.
1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
6 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.

Calculators

The reconstitution calculator allows you to quickly calculate the volume of a reagent to reconstitute your vial. Simply enter the mass of reagent and the target concentration and the calculator will determine the rest.

Background: IL-2

Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is a cytokine that stimulates the growth and differentiation of B cells, T cells, NK cells, and monocyte/macrophages. It functions through the heterotrimeric IL-2 receptor comprising alpha, beta, and gamma chains.
