Principle of the Assay: The LumiAb Human IL-17F Chemiluminescent ELISA Kit contains the components necessary for quantitative determination of natural or recombinant Human IL-17F concentrations within any experimental sample including cell lysates, serum and plasma. This particular immunoassay utilizes the quantitative technique of a "Sandwich" Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) where the target protein (antigen) is bound in a "sandwich" format by the primary capture antibodies coated to each well-bottom and the secondary detection antibodies added subsequently by the investigator. The capture antibodies coated to the bottom of each well are specific for a particular epitope on Human IL-17F while the user-added detection antibodies bind to epitopes on the captured target protein. Amid each step of the procedure, a series of wash steps must be performed to ensure the elimination of non-specific binding between proteins to other proteins or to the solid phase. After incubation and "sandwiching" of the target antigen, a peroxidase enzyme is conjugated to the constant heavy chain of the secondary antibody (either covalently or via Avidin/Streptavidin-Biotin interactions), allowing for a sensitive luminescent reaction to ensue upon substrate addition. When the Peroxide Enhancer solution is added, the reaction catalyzed by peroxidase yields light that is representative of the antigen concentration. After a brief incubation, the microplate can be read with a luminometer, allowing for generation of a standard curve and subsequent determination of protein concentration!!Background/Introduction: Human IL-17F, also known as IL-24, is a 163 amino acid cytokine protein that is encoded by the IL17F gene located at locus 6p12 on chromosome 6. After initial synthesis of IL-17F, the protein undergoes proteolytic processing to remove the 30 residue signal sequence from the pre-protein, allowing for the full maturation and folding of IL-17F. IL-17F is expressed by activated CD4+ T-cells and monocytes, and has been shown to regulate cartilage matrix turnover as well as stimulate the production of several other cytokines, including IL-6, IL-8 and CSF2/GM-CSF. Aside from these, the cytokine also has been known to stimulate PBMC and T-cell proliferation. Moreover, this cytokine has been found to inhibit the angiogenesis of endothelial cells and induce endothelial cells to produce IL-2, TGFB1/TGFB and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. This cytokine is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in various immune responses, inflammatory processes, and hematopoiesis. This cytokine is produced by monocytes and macrophages as a proprotein, which is proteolytically processed and released in response to cell injury, and thus induces apoptosis. This gene and eight other interleukin 1 family genes form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 2. It has been suggested that the polymorphism of these genes is associated with rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

IL1A: Produced by activated macrophages, IL-1 stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, and fibroblast growth factor activity. IL-1 proteins are involved in the inflammatory response, being identified as endogenous pyrogens, and are reported to stimulate the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells. Belongs to the IL-1 family.
