Lymphotoxin-alpha1

ELISA, WB, ICC/IF

Lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha; LTA) is member of the TNF ligand superfamily, bind the same TNF receptor and mediate similar pleiotropic effect. LTA, located within the MHC III region of chromosome 6, show close linkage to the HLA class I (HLA-B) and class II (HLA-DR) genes. LTA is proinflammatory cytokine with important biological activity and immunomodulatory function and be known to influence a variety of cellular response. In particular, Polymorphism in the gene encoding LTA appears to contribute to infectious disease susceptibility and infection.

Liquid. In Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) with 0.02% Sodium Azide, 10% Glycerol.

The antibody has been tested by ELISA, Western blot and Immunofluorescence analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended dilution range for Western blot analysis and Immunofluorescence is 1:250 ca. 500. Recommended starting dilution is 1:250
