Cell Culture, ELISA Standard, ELISpot Control, Western Blot Control
100% Homology:
Cavia porcellus (domestic guinea pig)
  • Guinea Pig CXCL10 (IP-10, Interferon Gamma-Induced Protein 10) (catalog RP1194GP) is a yeast-derived chemokine supplied lyophilized without carrier protein in 10% trehalose; it has no affinity tags and is naturally endotoxin-free, and should be reconstituted in sterile PBS that contains at least 0.1% carrier protein. The protein is ~8.6 kDa, 76 amino acids long (full sequence provided), and >98% pure by SDS-PAGE, with 100% amino-acid homology to domestic guinea pig. Store at -20°C (stable up to twelve months from date of receipt; working aliquots with carrier protein stable ~3 months) and avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Product origin is the USA. It is commonly used to study CXCL10/IP-10 signaling and immune-cell chemotaxis (including recruitment of activated T cells and NK cells during inflammatory responses); typical experimental uses include cell-culture stimulation and migration assays, chemotaxis and signaling studies, ELISA and neutralization assays, flow-cytometry and Western blot controls, and antibody generation/validation. Kingfisher Biotech products are supplied for research applications and are not intended for medicinal, diagnostic, or therapeutic use.

  • Guinea Pig CXCL10 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10), also known as IP-10 (Interferon gamma-induced protein 10), is a proinflammatory chemokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family, which also includes CXCL9 (MIG) and CXCL11 (I-TAC) that regulate T-cell recruitment during antiviral and inflammatory immune responses. In guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus), CXCL10 is produced by macrophages, dendritic cells, epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts in response to interferon-γ (IFN-γ), microbial infection, or inflammatory cytokines. CXCL10 signals primarily through the chemokine receptor CXCR3, which is expressed on activated T lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, and other immune cells, promoting chemotaxis and activation of these cells at sites of infection or inflammation. Guinea pigs are widely used as animal models for tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis because their disease pathology closely resembles human pulmonary tuberculosis, including granuloma formation and strong Th1 immune responses. In this model, CXCL10 contributes to the recruitment of CXCR3⁺ T cells and other immune cells to infected lung tissue, making guinea pig CXCL10 an important molecule for studying interferon-driven immunity, granulomatous inflammation, and host-pathogen interactions in tuberculosis research.
