Two type 1 membrane proteins belonging to the hemopoietin receptor family have been cloned and shown to bind IL-13 with differing affinities. The lower affinity IL-13 binding protein, previously designated IL-13 R alpha, IL-13 R alpha ' or NR4, is now referred to as IL-13 R alpha 1. The high-affinity IL-13 binding protein, previously also designated IL-13 R or IL-13 R alpha ', is now referred to as IL-13 R alpha 2. The human IL-13 R alpha 1 was originally cloned based on sequence homology to the mouse IL-13 R alpha 1. The IL‑13 R alpha 1 cDNA encodes a 427 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a putative 21 aa residue signal peptide, a 324 aa residue extracellular domain, a 23 aa residue transmembrane region and a 59 aa residue cytoplasmic tail. Human and mouse IL-13 R alpha 1 share 76% aa sequence identity. The extracellular domain of IL‑13 R alpha 1 is also closely related to that of IL-13 R alpha 2. IL-13 R alpha 1 has been shown to combine with the IL-4 R alpha to form a high-affinity receptor complex capable of transducing an IL-13-dependent proliferative signal. The role of IL-13 R alpha 2 in IL-13 signaling remains to be elucidated.

Scientific Data Images for Human IL‑13 R alpha 1 Antibody
Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑13 and Neutralization by Human IL‑13 R alpha 1 Antibody.
Recombinant Human IL-13 (213-ILB) stimulates prolif-eration in the TF-1 human erythroleukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-13 (10 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Human IL-13 Ra1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152). The ND50 is typically 1.00-12.0 µg/mL.
Detection of IL‑13 R alpha 1 in Human Granulocytes by Flow Cytometry.
Human whole blood granulocytes were stained with Goat Anti-Human IL-13 Ra1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152, filled histogram) or control antibody (AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (F0107).
IL‑13 R alpha 1 in Human Skin.
IL-13 Ra1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human skin using Goat Anti-Human IL-13 Ra1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

IL‑13 R alpha 1 in Human Heart.
IL‑13 R alpha 1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of Human Heart using Goat Anti-Human IL‑13 R alpha 1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152) at 5 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Goat IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC004). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in myocardial cells.

Detection of IL-13 R alpha 1 by Western Blot
IL-4R alpha drives IL-4- and IL-13-mediated signal transduction.N1 immortalized human prostate fibroblasts were treated with vehicle, IL-4 (20ng/ml), or IL-13 (20 ng/m) with or without 2 hr pre-treatment with IL4R alpha (IL4R) (400 ng) or IL-13R alpha 1 (40 ng) antibodies. Both IL-4 (Fig 7A) and IL-13 (Fig 7D) robustly and significantly induced STAT6 phosphoryation compared to vehicle-treated cells. IL-4 stimulation of STAT6 phosphorylation was repressed upon pre-treatment with IL4R alpha (A) but not IL-13R alpha 1 (B) antibodies, whereas IL-13 stimulation of STAT6 phosphorylation was repressed upon pre-treatment with either IL-13R alpha 1 (D) or IL4R alpha (E) antibodies. Densitometric data (S7 Fig) from the replicate experiments is graphed in C (IL-4) and F (IL-13). Significant differences are indicated as * p <.05; ** p <.01; *** p <.001; **** p <.0001.
