Biological Activity
IL-11 Protein, Human is a protective factor, which has a protective role and can accelerate recovery of platelets, and remarkably lessen the extent of inflammatory responses.
Recombinant Human Interleukin-11 (IL-11) plays a very crucial role in inflammation. Being an essential cytokine, IL-11 promotes chronic gastric inflammation and also associated with STAT3 and STAT1 mediated tumorigenesis. In addition, IL-11 is also an indispensable factor in IL-13- induced Th2-mediated inflammatory disorders and tissue remodeling. IL-11 has diverse biological functions. It has a protective role against neutron radiation injury, capable of promoting a faster recovery of small intestine injuries and also functions in response to inflammation in animal models of infection. Studies have revealed that IL-11 protects animal models of sepsis from liver injuries. Although its role in platelet production in neonates remains unclear, IL-11 is reported to be involved in the endogenous cytokine response to sepsis or Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) in premmies. IL-11 is also involved in NF-κB signaling pathway and inhibition of IL-6 can reduce colitis associated tumorigenesis [1].
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF-1 cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.4326 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is 2.31×106 units/mg.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
