Alternative Name | Il5 (IL5 ELISA Kit Abstract) |
Background | IL-5 is a 135 amino acid (aa) polypeptide with a predicted mass of 12.5 kDa. It is secreted by a restricted number of mesenchymal cell types. In its native state, mature IL-5 is synthesized as a 115 aa, highly glycosylated 22 kDa monomer that forms a 40-50 kDa disulfide-linked homodimer. Although the content of carbohydrate is high, carbohydrate is not needed for bioactivity. Monomeric IL-5 has no activity and requires a homodimer for function, which is in contrast to the receptor-related IL-3 and GM-CSF cytokines that exist only as monomers. Just as one IL-3 and GM-CSF monomer binds to one receptor, one IL-5 homodimer is able to engage only one IL-5 receptor. It has been suggested that IL-5 (as a dimmer) undergoes a general conformational change after binding to one receptor molecule and this change precludes binding to a second receptor. Mouse and mouse mature IL-5 are 71% identical at the aa level. IL-5 appears to perform a number of functions on eosinophils including growth and differentiation, the down modulation of Mac-1, the upregulation of receptors for IgA and IgG, the stimulation of lipid mediator (leukotriene C4 and PAF) secretion and the induction of granule release. IL-5 may act in an adjunct fashion plays, however, the exact role is unclear. Finally, there is a great deal of interest in the interaction between IL-5 and the CC chemokine eotaxin. Studies suggest that inflammatory-induced and locally produced IL-5 and eotaxin may act on the bone marrow in a cooperative manner. |

Sample Volume | 100 μL |
Plate | Pre-coated |
Protocol | The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to IL-5. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated polyclonal antibody preparation specific for IL-5. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. Then a TMB substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain IL-5, 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 2 wavelength of 450 nm 2 nm. The concentration of IL-5 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve. |
