Background/Introduction: Interleukin-25 (IL-25), also known as interleukin-17E (IL-17E), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL25 gene. It is a cytokine that belongs to the IL-17 cytokine family and mapped to 14q11.2. IL-25 is secreted by type 2 helper T cells (Th2) and mast cells. It has been found that IL-25 can induce Th2-type cytokine expression and production by non-T, non-B accessory cells that express high levels of major histocompatibility complex class II and low levels of Cd11c. This cytokine also can induce NF-kappaB activation, and stimulate the production of IL8. What's more, IL-25 is an important molecule controlling immunity of the gut and has been implicated in chronic inflammation associated with the gastrointestinal tract.

Product Notes
The Mouse IL25 il25 (Catalog #AAA8244556) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA8244556 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse IL25. AAA Biotech's IL-17E can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Sandwich ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the IL25 il25 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL-17E, 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
