Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	D7715A7
Applications	Bl, FC
Reactivity	Mouse
Host	Rat
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	This antibody was raised by immunising Lewis rats with OKT4 cells.
Specificity	This antibody is specific for murine IL-6R. This antibody binds to IL-6R-positive cells, and blocks IL-6 binding (Vink et al, 1990; Coulie et al, 1990). This antibody is able to inhibit the growth of IL6-dependent plasmacytoma T1033C2 in vitro (Coulie et al, 1990). Administration of this antibody to mice prior to challenge with T1033C2 resulted in a protection rate of 60% and prolonged survival in tumour-bearing mice (Vink et al, 1990). This antibody has been used in flow cytometry to assess IL-6Ra expression (Hoge et al, 2013). When added to dendritic cells subject to CD40 activation in vitro, this antibody neutralises IL-6 and ablates the effect of CD40 activation (Grohmann et al, 2001).
Formulation	PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
