Neutralization: To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity ofhRANTES (100 ng/mL), a concentration of 5.0 - 7.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. ELISA: To detect hRANTES by direct ELISA (using 100l/well antibody solution) aconcentration of at least 0.5g/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purifiedantibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of 0.2 -0.4 ng/well of recombinant hRANTES. Western Blot: To detect hRANTES by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at aconcentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagentsthe detection limit for recombinant hRANTES is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing ornon-reducing conditions. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Hintergrund
Rantes, also known as CCL5, is the protein classified as a chemotactic cytokine or chemokine. This protein is a chemotactic for blood monocytes, memory T helper cells, eosinophils and basophils, and plays an active role in recruiting leukocytes into inflammatory sites. Rantes also induces the proliferation and activation of certain natural-killer (NK) cells to form CHAK (CC-Chemokine-activated killer) cells. It is also an HIV-suppressive factor released from CD8+ T cells.Synonyms: C-C motif chemokine 5, D17S136E, E °CP, Eosinophil-chemotactic cytokine, SCYA5, SIS-delta, Small-inducible cytokine A5, T-cell-specific protein RANTES, cell-specific protein P228
