IL-12B p40 Antibody (1-1D5) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects IL-12B p40 in human samples through western blotting (WB). IL-12B p40 plays a crucial role in the immune response as a subunit of the heterodimeric cytokine IL-12, which is essential for the differentiation of naive CD4(+) T cells into type 1 helper T cells that produce interferon-γ (IFN-γ). This process is vital for the activation of T and natural killer (NK) cells, which are key players in the body′s defense against infections and tumors. The IL-12B p40 subunit also combines with p19 to form IL-23, a cytokine that shares some functional properties with IL-12, including the activation of the transcription factor Stat4 and the promotion of IFN-γ production. The ability of IL-12B p40 to influence both IL-12 and IL-23 pathways highlights its importance in regulating immune responses, making IL-12B p40 a significant target for research in immunology and potential therapeutic interventions. With specificity for human samples and proven application in western blotting (WB), anti-IL-12B p40 antibody (1-1D5) is an invaluable tool for studying the complex roles of interleukins in immune regulation.
