Introduction: Interleukin 17 (IL-17; also known as IL-17A) is a 30-35 kDa variably glycosylated homodimeric protein that belongs to a unique family of cysteine-knot related proteins. Its sequence was originally isolated from an activated rodent hybridoma and termed CTLA-8. It is synthesized as a 155 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 23 aa signal sequence and a 15 kDa, 132 aa mature segment. Although there are two intrachain disulfide bonds that create a ring reminiscent of those found in cysteine-knot proteins, the actual closed knot structure does not appear to form. IL-17 has one potential N-linked glycosylation site. In addition to IL-17A, members of the IL-17 family include IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17D, IL-17E (also called IL-25), and IL-17F. All members of the IL-17 family have a similar protein structure, with four highly conserved cysteine residues critical to their 3-dimensional shape yet they have no sequence similarity to any other known cytokines. Numerous immune regulatory functions have been reported for the IL-17 family of cytokines, presumably due to their induction of many immune signaling molecules. Most notably, IL-17 is involved in inducing and mediating proinflammatory responses. IL-17 is commonly associated with allergic responses. IL-17 induces the production of many other cytokines (such as IL-6, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IL-1beta, TGF-beta, TNF-alpha), chemokines (including IL-8, GRO-alpha and MCP-1) and prostaglandins (e.g. PGE2) from many cell types (fibroblasts, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, keratinocytes and macrophages). The release of cytokines causes many functions, such as airway remodeling, a characteristic of IL-17 responses. The increased expression of chemokines attracts other cells including neutrophils but not eosinophils. IL-17 function is also essential to a subset of CD4+ T-Cells called T helper 17 (Th17) cells. As a result of these roles, the IL-17 family has been linked to many immune/autoimmune related diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, lupus, allograft rejection and anti-tumour immunity. Mature rat IL-17 is 61% and 60% aa identical to mouse and rat IL-17, respectively. It also shows limited aa sequence identity to other rat IL-17 family members. In particular, it shows 34%, 38%, 34% and 26%aa sequence identity to IL-17B, C, D, and E, respectively, and 49% aa sequence identity to IL-17F with which it is most homologous. While rodent and rat mature sequences show modest aa sequence identity, rat IL-17 is active on both mouse and rat cells. The cells principally known to produce IL-17 are the memory CD4+ T cells. In addition, CD8+ T cells as well as TCR+ CD4-CD8- T cells, neutrophils (PMNs) and eosinophils have also been reported to express mRNA transcripts for IL-17.

Principle of the Assay: The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to IL-17. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific for IL-17 and Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. Then a TMB (3,3',5,5' tetramethyl-benzidine) substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain IL-17, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm +/- 2 nm. The concentration of IL-17 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

Product Notes

The Rat IL17A il17a (Catalog #AAA704126) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA704126 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat IL17A. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "interleukin 17A, 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.
