IL-11, a member of the IL-6 family of cytokines, exerts a wide range of biological effects on various cell types including hematopoietic cells, hepatocytes, adipocytes, neurons, and osteoblasts. IL-11 works synergistically with other growth factors including SCF, IL-4, IL-3, IL-7, IL-12, IL-13, and GM-CSF to stimulate the proliferation of cells from several hematopoietic lineages. Binding of IL-11 to the IL-11 receptor (IL-11R) induces membrane bound gp130 homodimerization and triggers STAT3 phosphorylation by JAK. IL-11 shares the common receptor subunit gp130 with IL-6, IL-27, LIF, OSM, CNTF, CT-1, CLC, and NP. Female mice deficient in IL-11R revealed an important role for IL-11 in embryonic implantation. In addition, IL-11 shows anti-inflammatory activity in models of inflammatory bowel disease, chemotherapy induced oral mucositis, and inflammatory arthritis. IL-11 and IL-13 are highly expressed in asthmatic airways (Th2 response), and IL-11 can inhibit Th1 responses and inhibits the production of Th1 cytokines such as IL-12 and shifts inflammation in Th2 direction. Elevated IL-11 expression is associated with tumor grade and invasion in gastric cancer. Recombinant human IL-11 has been clinically approved to improve platelet recovery after chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia.

- Formulation
- Protein was lyophilized from 0.1 μm solution containing PBS with 5% trehalose.
- Endotoxin Level
- Less than or equal to 0.1 EU per μg of protein as determined by LAL method.
- Residual Host Cell Protein Content
- ≤ 0.500 ng/μg by ELISA
- Concentration
- 50 μg and 250 μg sizes are lyophilized
- Storage & Handling
- Unopened lyophilized vials can be stored at ≤ -20°C for 5 years and between 2°C – 8°C for 2 weeks. Reconstituted aliquots can be stored between -20°C to -70°C for 3 months and between 2°C – 8°C for 2 weeks. Reconstitute lyophilized protein in sterile PBS. Before reconstitution, make sure sterile PBS and product are at room temperature. Quickly spin the vial or gently tap down on the vial to make sure the lyophilized product is at the bottom of the vial before opening. Use aseptic techniques to add the required volume of reconstitution buffer to the vial, to obtain the recommended stock concentration of 250 μg/mL. Close the vial and leave at ambient temperature for 15-20 minutes. Then gently invert the vial several times or until all the lyophilized product dissolves. Leave the vial at room temperature for another 15 minutes. If small particulates are still observed after 15 minutes, incubate at room temperature for an additional 30 minutes and leave the vial at 2°C - 8°C overnight. Next day, invert the vial several times or gently pipette the solution up and down before use. If needed, transfer the reconstituted stock solution to a sterile container for additional dilution to no less than 100 μg/mL. Small working aliquots in polypropylene tubes can be made after reconstitution and store the vials at -20°C or lower. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. Carrier protein such as 0.2 - 1% endotoxin-free BSA or HSA can be added when preparing the stock solution.
