IL-17A/F Heterodimer Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His-Avi)

IL-17A-17F Heterodimer Protein is the heterodimer of the cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F. Both IL-17A and IL-17F can induce antimicrobial peptides, cytokines (IL-6 and GM-CSF), chemokines (CCL2, CCL7 and CXCL1), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-1 and MMP13). IL-17A-17F shows intermediate biological activity between IL-17A and IL-17F^[1][2][3][4]. IL-17A/F Heterodimer Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His-Avi) is a recombinant mouse IL-17A-17F heterodimer protein with His tag and Avi tag at the C-terminus and is expressed in HEK293 cells.

IL-17A-17F Heterodimer Protein is the heterodimer of the cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F. Both IL-17A and IL-17F belongs to the IL-17 cytokine family. IL-17A-17F heterodimer, IL-17A and IL-17F homodimers can be produced by differentiated Th17 cells^[1][2]. IL-17F shares the most similarities with IL-17A (50% homology)^[2]. Both IL-17A and IL-17F can induces antimicrobial peptides, cytokines (IL-6 and GM-CSF), chemokines (CCL2, CCL7 and CXCL1), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-1 and MMP13)^[2][3]. IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-17A-17F use the same receptor complex: IL-17RA and IL-17RC heterodimer. And they trigger qualitatively similar signaling pathways. IL-17A-17F shows intermediate biological activity between IL-17A (most potent) and IL-17F (least potent)^[2][4].

IL-17A/IL-17F (0.1-500 ng/mL; 0-24 h) significantly induces MCP-1 and MIP-2 production in a dose- and time- dependent manner in SV40 MES 13 cells^[5].
