IL-12 (Interleukin-12) is a secreted heterodimeric cytokine that contains disulfide-linked p35 and p40 subunits. The p40 subunit is also a subunit of the heterodimeric IL-23. IL-12 is produced by macrophages, dendritic cells, monocytes, Langerhans cells, neutrophils, keratinocytes, microglia, and non-germinal center B cells. It acts through a receptor complex that contains the ligand binding IL-12 R alpha 1 and the signal transducing IL-12 R alpha 2. IL-12 can enhance cytotoxic activity and induce Interferon-gamma production in NK cells, T cells and dendritic epidermal T cells. In conjunction with IL-23 and IL-27, IL-12 promotes the development of a Th1 immune response.

Q: What is the difference between the Mouse IL-12 p40 Allele-specific (M1240) and Non Allele-specific(MP400) Quantikine ELISA kits?
A: Polymorphisms exist in the mouse IL-12/IL-23 p40 sequence. The monoclonal capture antibody used in M1240 is allele-specific. It recognizes the IL-12/IL-23 p40 variant with methionine at residue 169 (Accession # P43432) in mouse strains A.SW, BALB/c, C3H, DBA/1, C57BL/6, NOR, and 129/J. The MP400 kit recognizes variant and non-variant mouse IL-12/IL-23 p40.
