Description

Interleukin-16 (IL-16) is produced by CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and functions as a chemoattractant for lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, dendritic cells, and Langerhans cells. Additionally, IL-16 upregulates the expression of the interleukin-2 receptor (CD25), modulates T lymphocyte growth, and suppresses the replication of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIV).

Activity Assay

Human IL-16 is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the ability to induce chemotaxis of primary human T cells by Human IL-16.
