PeproTech's Recombinant Human IL-12 p70, derived from HEK293 cells, is a heterodimeric glycoprotein consisting of disulfide-linked p35 and p40 subunits (503 total amino acid residues). The calculated molecular weight of Human IL-12 p70 is 57.2 kDa; however, due to glycosylation, it migrates at an apparent molecular weight of 65-70 kDa based on SDS-PAGE gel, under non-reducing conditions.

IL-12 p70, also known as interleukin-12, is a cytokine that plays a critical role in the immune system's response to infections and cancer. It is produced by immune cells, including dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells, in response to certain pathogens and tumor cells. IL-12 p70 stimulates the production of interferon-gamma and other cytokines, which promote the activation and proliferation of T cells and natural killer cells. IL-12 p70 has been studied as a potential therapeutic target for various diseases and conditions, including infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, and cancer. It has been shown to enhance immune responses against certain infections and tumors, and to modulate inflammatory responses in autoimmune diseases.
