Human Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 18 (TNFSF18) ELISA Kit
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Background: Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 18 is a cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family. This cytokine is a ligand for receptor TNFRSF18/AITR/GITR. It has been shown to modulate T lymphocyte survival in peripheral tissues. This cytokine is also found to be expressed in endothelial cells, and is thought to be important for interaction between T lymphocytes and endothelial cells. By screening a panel of epitope-tagged candidate TNF ligand proteins for binding to a recombinant AITR protein, these authors identified the AITR ligand, AITRL or TL6. Northern blot analysis revealed that TL6 is expressed as a 2.4-kb mRNA in pancreas.

Uniprot Description
TNFSF18: Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF18/AITR/GITR. Regulates T- cell responses. Can function as costimulator and lower the threshold for T-cell activation and T-cell proliferation. Important for interactions between activated T-lymphocytes and endothelial cells. Mediates activation of NF-kappa-B. Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.

Product Notes
The Human TNFSF18 tnfsf18 (Catalog #AAA9713870) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9713870 ELISA Kit recognizes Human TNFSF18. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 18 (TNFSF18), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
