Stability and Reconstitution

Stability and Storage Lyophilized proteins are stable for 1 year from the date of receipt if stored between (-20°C) and (-80°C). Upon reconstitution we recommend that the solution can be stored at (4°C) for short term or at (-20°C) to (-80°C) for long term. Repeated freeze thaw cycles should be avoided with reconstituted products.
Reconstitution Briefly centrifuge the vial before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the protein to 0.2 mg/mL in sterile 1x PBS pH 7.4 containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant human serum albumin (HSA). Gently swirl or tap vial to mix.

Our GMP recombinant proteins are animal component free (ACF), xeno free (XF) and tag free (TF). Read more about these policies here.

Background

Interleukin 23 (IL-23) is a member of the IL12 cytokine family and composed of two subunits, IL12p40 and IL23p19. It is produced by antigen presenting cells and has been shown to promote the production and survival of a distinct lineage of T-cells called TH17 cells. A functional receptor for IL-23 (the IL-23 receptor) has been identified and is composed of IL-12Rβ1 and IL-23R. IL-23 is expressed chiefly by the macrophages and DCs. The IL-23R is found on memory T cells, NKT cells, macrophages, DCs, and naive T cells upon activation by TGF-βand IL-6. The main biological effects of IL-23 identified initially are stimulation of antigen presentation by DCs, T cell differentiation to Th17 cells, and production of interferon-γ (IFN-γ). IL-23 acts also as an end-stage effector cytokine through direct action on macrophages (PMID: 16393998;15657292;12023369;12610626)
