Scientific Data
Detection of Human IL‑12/IL‑23 p40 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of Hs 294T human melanoma cell line. PVDF Membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human IL-12/IL-23 p40 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF309) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). A specific band was detected for IL-12/IL-23 p40 at approximately 40 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.
Il-17 Secretion Induced by IL‑23 and Neutralization by Human IL‑12/IL‑23 p40 Antibody. Recombinant Human IL-23 (Catalog # 1290-IL) induces IL-17 secretion in the mouse splenocytes in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by Mouse IL-17 Quantikine kit. IL-17 Secretion elicited by Recombinant Human IL-23 (0.75 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Human IL-12/IL-23 p40 Anti-gen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF309). The ND50 is typically 0.004-0.02 µg/mL.

Background: IL-12/IL-23 p40
Interleukin 23 (IL-23) is a heterodimeric cytokine composed of two disulfide-linked subunits, a p19 subunit that is unique to IL-23, and a p40 subunit that is shared with IL-12 (1‑5). The p19 subunit has homology to the p35 subunit of IL-12, as well as to other single chain cytokines such as IL-6 and IL-11. The p40 subunit is homologous to the extracellular domains of the hematopoietic cytokine receptors. Human p19 cDNA encodes a 189 amino acid residue (aa) precursor protein with a putative 19 aa signal peptide and 170 aa mature protein. Human and mouse p19 share 70% aa sequence identity. Although p19 is expressed by activated macrophages, dendritic cells, T cells, and endothelial cells, only activated macrophages and dendritic cells express p40 concurrently to produce IL-23. The functional IL-23 receptor complex consists of two receptor subunits, the IL-12 receptor beta 1 subunit (IL-12 R beta 1) and the IL-23-specific receptor subunit (IL-23 R). IL-23 has biological activities that are similar to, but distinct from IL-12. Both IL-12 and IL-23 induce proliferation and IFN-gamma production by human T cells. While IL-12 acts on both naïve and memory human T cells, the effects of IL-23 is restricted to memory T cells. In mouse, IL-23 but not IL-12, has also been shown to induce memory T cells to secret IL-17, a potent proinflammatory cytokine. IL-12 and IL-23 can induce IL-12 production from mouse splenic DC of both the CD8- and CD8+ subtypes, however only IL-23 can act directly on CD8+ DC to mediate immunogenic presentation of poorly immunogenic tumor/self peptide.
