Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody recognises Interleukin-8 (Il-8) which is a neutrophil chemotactic peptide. It is secreted by many different cells which had been activated by inflammatory stimuli. It is specific to Il-8 and does not bind to other chemokins, such as C5a, platelet factor 4 or β-TG. |
Alternative Name | Interleukin-8; Il8; II-8; Il 8; C-X-C motif chemokine 8; Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8; Emoctakin; Granulocyte chemotactic protein 1; GCP-1; Monocyte-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor; MDNCF; Monocyte-derived neutrophil-activating peptide; MONAP; Neutrophil-activating protein 1; NAP-1; Protein 3-10C; T-cell chemotactic factor |
UniProt | P10145 |
Immunogen | This antibody was raised by immunising Balc/c mice against conjugated Il-8. |
Application Notes | This antibody is an Il-8 antagonist and prevents binding to neutrophils, which might be used in research aiming at treating asthma (before or after its onset) (US5874080A). Furthermore, this antibody inhibits both Il-8-dependent neutrophil chemotaxis and neutrophil elastase release (US5874080A). |

Note on publication | The article describes a method of generating Aspergillus-reactive IgE–secreting human hybridomas (among them these secreting this antibody). Subsequently, the antibody is characterized and its specificity is determined. Finally, this antibody is used to determin a potential presence of its antigen in the commercialy-available Aspergillus samples used in diagnosis and treatment of Aspergillus-related allergies. |
