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 in sterile 1xPBS pH 7.4 containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant human serum albumin (HSA).

Background

IL-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine composed of two subunits: IL-27a and IL-27b. IL-27 acts on various cell types, including T cells, B cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, natural killer (NK) cells and non-hematopoietic cells. IL-27 plays a critical role in the early regulation of T helper type 1 initiation, and enhances proliferation of naive CD4+T cells and naive B cells. It, however, also exerts anti-inflammatory functions by inhibiting the development of Th17 cells and inducing IL-10 producing type 1 regulatory T cells. IL-27 is a potentially promising cytokine for therapeutic approaches on various human diseases (PMID: 22608254;16081786;16670296;16906167)
