Background Information
IL18, is a proinflammatory cytokine involved in the development of Th1 cells and in immune response. It can stimulate the NK cells and certain T cells to release IFN gamma which plays an important role in activating the macrophages or other cells. IL18 has been demonstrated to have the potential to enhance Fas ligand-mediated cytotoxicity, which is increased in PE and regulates placental apoptosis. IL18 is synthesized as a 22 kDa precursor and then cleaved into a biologically activate 18 kDa form. This antibody 10663-1-AP is raised against the full length IL18 precursor, and it recognizes both the pre-IL18 and mature IL18 theoretically.

Reviews
What customers say
The single review for this antibody (rated 4/5) highlights strong labeling performance in immunohistochemistry on frontal tissue. The reviewer noted that achieving optimal results required multiple rounds of titration due to elevated background at lower dilutions, ultimately settling on a 1:5000 working dilution for clean staining. Overall, the antibody was well received for its specific labeling once the correct dilution was identified.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Jillian (Verified Customer) (05-27-2025) | Great antibody, labels very well. We had to titrate multiple times to get to the working value because it had a high background until we reached 1:5000 dilution
