Target Details

  • Target: Interleukin-12 (IL12) p40 subunit
  • Target background: IL-12 is a heterodimeric cytokine comprised of p35 and p40 subunits. IL-12 plays a central role in cell-mediated immunity, promoting the differentiation of CD4+ T cells to the Th1 subset and of CD8+ T cells into mature cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is produced by dendritic cells, macrophages, neutrophils, and human B-lymphoblastoid cells in response to antigenic stimulation. IL-12 is a potent stimulator of Natural Killer cells. IL-12 therapy has been suggested as a method of enhancing cytocidal anti-tumour immune responses. This antibody recognises the p40 subunit of human IL-12 and binds to both the free subunit and the p35/p40 heterodimer. It reacts with both stimulated and unstimulated monocytes in immunohistology.
