Anti-IL-34 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the IL-34 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the IL34 gene, which encodes interleukin 34. This protein is known to function in inflammatory response pathways and innate immune responses, among other biological roles. The human version of IL-34 has a canonical amino acid length of 242 residues and a protein mass of 27.5 kilodaltons, although 2 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be a secreted protein. IL-34 is a member of the IL-34 protein family. A number of IL-34 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. ELISA and Western Blot are common applications for these antibodies.
