Interleukin-4; Murine IL-4, 20ug

IL-4, Interleukin-4, murine (mouse): Murine Interleukin-4 Interleukin-4 is a pleiotropic cytokine that regulates diverse T and B cell responses including cell proliferation, survival, and gene expression. Produced by mast cells, T cells and bone marrow stromal cells, IL-4 regulates the differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into helper Th2 cells, characterized by their cytokine-secretion profile that includes secretion of IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-13, which favor a humoral immune response. Another dominant function of IL-4 is the regulation of immunoglobulin class switching to the IgG1 and IgE isotypes. Excessive IL-4 production by Th2 cells has been associated with elevated IgE production and allergy.  Source: Escherichia coli.
