IFN-alpha 1/IFNA1 Protein, Human, Recombinant (hFc)

SKU: orb1960801

Description

IFN-α, a cytokine expressed in human islets from individuals affected by type 1 diabetes, plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetes by upregulating inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and MHC class I overexpression, three hallmarks of islet histology in early type 1 diabetes. IFN-alpha 1/IFNA1 Protein, Human, Recombinant (hFc) is expressed in HEK293 mammalian cells with C-hFc tag. The predicted molecular weight is 46.14 kDa and the accession number is P01562.

Research Area
