background

Cytokines were the first modern immunotherapies to produce durable responses in patients with advanced cancer, components of the interleukin-18 (IL-18) pathway are upregulated on tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes, suggesting that IL-18 therapy could enhance anti-tumour immunity. IL-18BP, a high-affinity IL-18 decoy receptor, is frequently upregulated in diverse human and mouse tumours and limits the anti-tumour activity of IL-18 in mice.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 44.4 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 60-80 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

available size

100 µg, 500 µg
