Key Product Details

Assay Type

Sandwich ELISA

Sample Type

Cell culture supernatants from rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). Can also be used to measure IL-21 in a variety of biological sample types reported in the literature, including serum, plasma, whole blood, and tissue lysates from organs such as spleen, lymph nodes, lung, and intestine. While the kit is optimized for cell culture supernatants, minor modifications to the protocol may be required when in other sample types to ensure optimal sensitivity and accuracy, allowing researchers to adjust buffers, antibody concentrations, incubation times, temperatures, and other assay conditions as needed.

Background: IL-21

IL-21 (Interleukin-21) is member of the family of cytokines that utilize the common gamma chain as a receptor subunit. This subunit is also a component of the receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15. IL-21 is produced by activated T follicular helper cells (Tfh), Th17 cells, and NKT cells. It exerts its biological effects through a heterodimeric receptor complex of the common gamma chain and the IL-21-specific IL-21 R. IL-21 supports Tfh cell development, immunoglobulin affinity maturation, plasma cell differentiation, B cell memory responses, and the migration of dendritic cells to draining lymph nodes. It costimulates the activation, proliferation, and survival of CD8+ T cells and NKT cells and promotes Th17 cell polarization. It blocks the generation of regulatory T cells and their suppressive effects on CD4+ T cells. In addition, IL-21 suppresses cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions by limiting allergen-specific IgE production and mast cell degranulation.
