The Human Interleukin 18 Binding Protein (Hu IL-18BP) ELISA quantitates Hu IL-18BP in human serum, plasma, or cell culture medium. The assay will exclusively recognize both natural and recombinant Hu IL-18BP.
原理方法
The Human IL-18BP solid-phase sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is designed to measure the amount of the target bound between a matched antibody pair. A target-specific antibody has been pre-coated in the wells of the supplied microplate. Samples, standards, or controls are then added into these wells and bind to the immobilized (capture) antibody. The sandwich is formed by the addition of the second (detector) antibody, a substrate solution is added that reacts with the enzyme-antibody-target complex to produce measurable signal. The intensity of this signal is directly proportional to the concentration of target present in the original specimen.
严格验证
Each manufactured lot of this ELISA kit is quality tested for criteria such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, and lot-to-lot consistency. See manual for more information on validation.
Interleukin-18 binding protein (IL-18BP) is a constitutively secreted glycoprotein that acts as a natural antagonist for interleukin-18 (IL-18) by preventing interaction between IL-18 and its receptors. Through this binding, IL-18BP neutralizes the proinflammatory role of IL-18 in cell-mediated immune responses, resulting in reduced IFN-gamma production by T helper type I cells and inhibition of allospecific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity through augmented natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity. As an inhibitor of IL-18 and an essential component of skin homeostasis, IL-18BP has been linked to a variety of diseases, including eczema, asthma, and the autoimmune condition, Crohn's disease. The upregulation of IL-18BP by keratinocytes expressing the human papillomavirus (HPV) E7 oncoprotein has been shown to decrease IL-18-induced IFN-gamma production and IL-18-mediated T cell activation. Elevated levels of IL-18 and IL-18BP, as well as proinflammatory cytokines IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and IL-8, have been linked to chronic inflammation and observed in macrophages (including Kupffer cells) isolated from lesions and intestinal tissues of Crohn's disease patients. As a member of the immunoglobulin-like class of receptors, IL-18BP contains a single immunoglobulin (Ig) domain; although two (b and d) of the four identified human isoforms (a-d) contain incomplete domains that greatly reduce their binding affinity.
