Description | Anti-IRF8 Antibody was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. Cross reactivity with IRF8 from other sources has not been determined. Interferons (IFN)s are involved in a multitude of immune interactions during viral infections and play a major role in both the induction and regulation of innate and adaptive antiviral mechanisms. During infection, host-virus interactions signal downstream molecules such as transcription factors such as IFN regulatory factor-3 (IRF3) which can act to stimulate transcription of IFN-alpha/beta genes. Unlike IRF3, IRF8 appears to act as a negative regulator of IFN-induced genes in most cases, but IRF8 mediates activation of NF-kB by the toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) after stimulation by unmethylated CpG DNA in dendritic cells. Finally, it has been shown that IRF8 decreases bcl-2 expression and thus may play a role in chronic myelogenous leukemia. |
Immunogen | Anti-IRF8 antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a peptide corresponding to 16 amino acids near the C-terminus of human IRF8. |
