IL-17A elisa kit
Human IL-17A ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: This kit is based on a sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. An analyte-specific polyclonal antibody is pre-coated onto 96-well plates. The biotin conjugated second antibody is used as detection antibody. During the first incubation the standards and samples react with the analyte-specific pre-coated antibody. In a second incubation the biotin conjugated detection antibody completes the sandwich. After washing with wash buffer the TMB substrate is added to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changes into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The optical density of the yellow color is proportional to the analyte captured in plate. Read the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microtiterplate reader, and calculate the concentration of the analyte in the sample by taking into consideration the dilution factor of the sample!!Background/Introduction: Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is an interleukin that is naturally produced by dendritic cells, macrophages and human Blymphoblastoid cells (NC-37) in response to antigenic stimulation. IL-12 is composed of a bundle of four alpha helices. It is a heterodimeric cytokine encoded by two separate genes, IL-12A (p35) and IL-12B (p40). IL-12 plays an important role in the activities of natural killer cells and T lymphocytes. It mediates enhancement of the cytotoxic activity of NK cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes. IL-12 also has anti-angiogenic activity, which means it can block the formation of new blood vessels. IL12 p40 exists as a monomer and as a homodimer. The IL12B gene contains 8 exons, and maps to 5q31-q33.

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated T cells. This cytokine regulates the activities of NF-kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinases. This cytokine can stimulate the expression of IL6 and cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2/COX-2), as well as enhance the production of nitric oxide (NO). High levels of this cytokine are associated with several chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
