Product Description |
IL-15 Protein assumes a pivotal role in orchestrating inflammatory and protective immune responses against microbial invaders and parasites, modulating immune cells across both the innate and adaptive immune systems. This cytokine stimulates the proliferation of natural killer cells, T-cells, and B-cells, while also promoting the secretion of various cytokines. Notably, IL-15, unlike most cytokines, is expressed on the surface of IL-15-producing cells in association with its high-affinity receptor IL15RA, delivering signals to target cells expressing IL2RB and IL2RG receptor subunits. Upon binding to its receptor, IL-15 triggers the phosphorylation of JAK1 and JAK3, recruiting and subsequently phosphorylating signal transducer and activator of transcription-3/STAT3 and STAT5. In monocytes, IL-15 induces the production of IL8 and monocyte chemotactic protein 1/CCL2, attracting neutrophils and monocytes to infection sites. Additionally, in mast cells, IL-15 induces rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT6, exerting control over mast cell survival and the release of cytokines such as IL4. Animal-Free IL-15 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived animal-FreeIL-15 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-His labeled tag. The total length of Animal-Free IL-15 Protein, Human (His) is 114 a.a., with molecular weight of ~13.7 kDa. |
