InVivoMAb Anti-Human IFNB1/IFN-beta Antibody (Iv0199) (ARO-A13098)

Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hardcopy of datasheet or the lot-specific COA.

Interferon beta (IFNB1/IFN-beta) is a ~22 kDa protein. Type I interferon cytokine that plays a key role in the innate immune response to infection, developing tumors and other inflammatory stimuli. Signals via binding to high-affinity (IFNAR2) and low-affinity (IFNAR1) heterodimeric receptor, activating the canonical Jak-STAT signaling pathway resulting in transcriptional activation or repression of interferon-regulated genes that encode the effectors of the interferon response, such as antiviral proteins, regulators of cell proliferation and differentiation, and immunoregulatory proteins. Signals mostly via binding to a IFNAR1-IFNAR2 heterodimeric receptor, but can also function with IFNAR1 alone and independently of Jak-STAT pathways. Elicits a wide variety of responses, including antiviral and antibacterial activities, and can regulate the development of B-cells, myelopoiesis and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-inducible production of tumor necrosis factor. Plays a role in neuronal homeostasis by regulating dopamine turnover and protecting dopaminergic neurons: acts by promoting neuronal autophagy and alpha-synuclein clearance, thereby preventing dopaminergic neuron loss.
