As with any protein, exposing IL-24 recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.

储存方法
The recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20 °C. Reconstituted IL-24 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20 °C.
IL-24 is a secreted glycoprotein belonging to the IL-10 structural family of cytokines. It is produced by a variety of cell types, including B cells, CD4+ cells, NK cells, lymph node DCs, monocytes, and melanoma cells. IL-24 can signal through the IL20R1/IL20R2 and IL22R1/IL20R2 receptors to initiate a signaling cascade which includes the induction of JAK1/STAT3 phosphorylation. IL-24 is, functionally, a pleiotropic protein but is generally characterized as an anti-cancer cytokine that can selectively inhibit growth of a wide variety of human cancer cells through activities that include the induction of differentiation and apoptosis, and the suppression of angiogenesis and cell proliferation. Recombinant human IL-24 is an 18.9 kDa glycoprotein, containing 161 amino acid residues, including a C-terminal His-tag.
