Anti-IL-22 antibodies are protein reagents that detect specific antigens. The IL-22 antigen is another term for the human protein interleukin 22, encoded by the IL22 gene. The protein is known to be a cytokine that plays a critical role in modulating tissue responses during inflammation. Canonically, it has an amino acid length of 179 residues and a mass of 20 kilodaltons. It is a secreted protein. The IL-22 protein is a member of the IL-10 protein family. Other alias names for IL-22 include IL-21, IL-D110, and IL-TIF. Over 530 citations in the literature describe the use of IL-22 antibodies in research. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
