General Notes
Mouse anti Human CXCL9 antibody, clone C04-3E4, recognizes, C-X-C motif chemokine 9 (CXCL9), also known as Monokine induced by Interferon-Gamma (MIG) and small inducible cytokine B9. Synthesis of CXCL9 is induced by IFN-gamma and it mediates lymphoytic infiltration to focal sites and inhibits tumor growth (Tokunaga et al. 2018). CXCL9 is not detectable under physiological conditions in non-lymphoid tissues. However in response to inflammation or injury, IFN-gamma induces CXCL9 production in blood and tissue cells. CXCL9 is a ligand of CXCR3, a classic 7 transmembrane G protein coupled receptor. Upon binding to this receptor the signaling pathways Src, PI3k and MAPK can be activated (Koper et al. 2018).The purified Mouse anti Human CXCL9 antibody, clone C04-3E4 (MCA6252GA) can be used as a capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA with the biotinylated Mouse anti Human CXCL9 antibody, clone C09-9H7 (MCA6253B) as the detection antibody.
