Interleukin-17 Murine Recombinant produced in E. Coli is a homodimeric, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing a total of 268 (2x134 a.a.) amino acids and having a molecular mass of 30 kDa. The IL-17 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. IL17 is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated T cells. IL-17 regulates the activities of NF-kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinases. Interleukin-17 can stimulate the expression of IL6 and cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2/COX-2), as well as enhance the production of nitric oxide (NO). High levels of IL-17 are associated with several chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis.
