Principle of the Assay: The Human GITRL ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Human GITRL in Cell Culture Supernates, Serum, Plasma. This assay employs an antibody specific for Human GITRL coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and GITRL present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human GITRL antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of GITRL bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Background: Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 18, also known as AITRL or GITRL, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFSF18 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor(TNF) ligand family. It is mapped to 1q25.1. TNFSF18 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. TNFSF18-dependent modulation of tryptophan catabolism may represent an important mechanism of action of glucocorticoids, both physiologically and therapeutically.

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.

Protein type: Apoptosis; Cytokine; Membrane protein, integral

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q23

Cellular Component: cell surface; plasma membrane

Molecular Function: receptor binding; tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily binding

Biological Process: activation of NF-kappaB transcription factor; cell-cell signaling; negative regulation of apoptosis; positive regulation of cell adhesion; positive regulation of leukocyte migration; positive regulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of Stat1 protein; regulation of T cell proliferation; signal transduction; T cell proliferation during immune response; tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway

Product Notes

The Human TNFSF18 tnfsf18 (Catalog #AAA8248411) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA8248411 ELISA Kit recognizes Human TNFSF18. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GITRL, 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.
