Notification: Our anti-mouse IL-28B antibody raised in mice and produced in hybridoma (mabg-mil28b/mabg-mil28b-5) has been removed from our catalog. Its coding sequence has been determined and the antibody is now produced by recombinant technology and purified from CHO cells.
Recombinant mAb against murine IL-28B
Neutralizing monoclonal antibody against murine IL-28B
InvivoGen provides a recombinant anti-mIL-28b-mIgG1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) that was previously extracted from hybridoma. It is now expressed and produced in chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, ensuring reliability and lot-to-lot reproducibility. Thereby, common hybridoma-related drawbacks such as the generation of non-relevant mAbs containing aberrant light chains are avoided [1].
The sequence of the anti-mIL-28b-mIgG1 is 100% murine (constant and variable regions), as the original clone (clone 3C11) was raised in mice using a proprietary method. This feature allows for reduced immunogenicity and risks of fatal hypersensitivity reactions upon repeated mAb injections into mice [2-4].
InvivoGen provides this antibody in two grades:
- In vitro use: Anti-mIL-28b-mIgG1
- In vivo use: Anti-mIL-28b-mIgG1 InvivoFit™
All InvivoFit™ products are handled in a clean room, filter-sterilized, and tested for bacterial contaminants. Additionally, this grade guarantees a low levels of endotoxins (<1 EU/ml). The buffer formulation is specifically adapted for in vivo studies.
Key features:
- Potent and specific neutralizing activity against mIL-28B
- Sequence is 100% murine
- Murine IgG1 isotype (constant region)
- Free from non-relevant mAbs found in hybridoma-based productions
- Produced in animal-free facilities and defined media
- Low aggregation < 5%
- InvivoFit™ grade is available
Anti-mIL-28b-mIgG1 is designed to efficiently neutralize the biological activity of mIL-28B. Interleukin 28B (IL-28B) is a member of the type III interferon (IFN) family, that exhibits several common features with type I IFNs: antiviral and antitumor activity [5,6].

Type III interferons (IFNs) - also called IFN-λ cytokines - play an essential role within the antiviral response in epithelial barrier tissues. In humans, this family comprises four distinct proteins called IFN-λ1 (IL-29), IFN-λ2 (IL-28A), IFN-λ3 (IL-28B), and the poorly secreted IFN-λ4. In mice, two functional orthologs (IL-28A and IL-28B) have been described [1,2]. IFN-λs are produced by virtually any nucleated cell type. However, the target cell populations of IL-28/IL-29 are restricted and mainly include epithelial cells and hepatocytes [3].
Upon infection, viral RNA is sensed by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) including RIG-I and MDA5 [3]. This stimulates the transcription of IFN-λs by IRF1 (IFN regulatory factor 1). Subsequently, IFN-λs bind to a heterodimeric receptor formed by the assembly of IFNLR1 (IFN-lambda receptor 1) and IL10Rβ (IL-10 receptor β). This leads to the recruitment of the Janus kinases, JAK1 and TyK2, and phosphorylation of STAT1 and STAT2. They dimerize and interact with IRF9, forming the so-called ISGF3 complex. ISGF3 translocates into the nucleus and binds to IFN-stimulated response elements (ISRE) within the promoter region of antiviral IFN-stimulated genes (ISG) to regulate their expression [2-3]. Besides its antiviral function, IFN-λ signaling plays also an important role in non-infectious diseases like inflammatory bowel disease and cancer [2].
