Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, IL-8 (E5F5Q) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (SignalFlex\u003csup\u003e™\u003c\/sup\u003e Alexa Fluor\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e 555 Conjugate) (CST #50255) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nSignalFlex™ conjugates are produced using highly validated Cell Signaling Technology ® primary antibodies and conjugation methods that have been rigorously tested, ensuring high-quality conjugates and lot-to-lot consistency. These conjugates are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. However, they are not tested on specific assays. Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. When performing flow cytometry, we recommend using an isotype control conjugate at the same concentration as the antibody conjugate.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg\/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nIL-8 (E5F5Q) XP\nSpecies Reactivity: Human\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with human IL-8 recombinant protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nThe prototypical CXC chemokine, IL-8, is best known for effects on neutrophils, specifically its ability to act as a chemoattractant and activate degranulation and respiratory burst (1-3). IL-8 is produced by a number of cell types, including monocytes, T cells, neutrophils, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and others (1). In addition to its effects on neutrophils, IL-8 promotes angiogenesis, inhibits endothelial cell apoptosis, and promotes the proliferation of melanoma cells in an autocrine fashion (1). As a result, IL-8 may be a contributing factor to the development of certain cancers (1,2). There are two distinct receptors for IL-8, CXCR1 and CXCR2; both are G protein-coupled receptors (1). Ligand binding induces Ca mobilization and activates the PI3K, PKC, Rho, and Rac pathways (1,3).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\n(Ala-IL-8)77; (Ser-IL-8)72; alveolar macrophage chemotactic factor I; beta endothelial cell-derived neutrophil activating peptide; beta-thromboglobulin-like protein; C-X-C motif chemokine 8; C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8; Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8; CXCL8; emoctakin; GCP-1; GCP\/IL-8 protein I; GCP\/IL-8 protein II; GCP\/IL-8 protein III; GCP\/IL-8 protein IV; GCP\/IL-8 protein V; GCP\/IL-8 protein VI; GCP1; granulocyte chemotactic protein 1; IL-8; IL-8(1-77); IL-8(5-77); IL-8(6-77); IL-8(7-77); IL-8(8-77); IL-8(9-77); IL8; IL8\/NAP1 form I; IL8\/NAP1 form II; IL8\/NAP1 form III; IL8\/NAP1 form IV; IL8\/NAP1 form V; IL8\/NAP1 form VI; interleukin 8; Interleukin-8; LECT; LUCT; lung giant cell carcinoma-derived chemotactic protein; lymphocyte derived neutrophil activating peptide; lymphocyte-derived neutrophil-activating factor; LYNAP; MDNCF; MDNCF-a; MDNCF-b; MDNCF-c; MONAP; monocyte-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor; monocyte-derived neutrophil-activating peptide; NAF; NAP-1; NAP1; Neutrophil-activating factor; neutrophil-activating peptide 1; Neutrophil-activating protein 1; Protein 3-10C; SCYB8; small inducible cytokine subfamily B, member 8; T cell chemotactic factor; T-cell chemotactic factor; tumor necrosis factor-induced gene 1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800416932009,"sku":"50255W2","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-50255w2","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
