Non-Human Primate IL-18 Cartridge Summary

Simple Plex assay is for the detection of non-human primate Interleukin 18 (IL-18) in cell culture supernatant (CCS), serum, and plasma (EDTA/Heparin) in Sample Diluent SD13.

*The Sample Volume represented is based on the amount of sample incorporated into the reaction after taking into account the assay's minimum required dilution for a given matrix. Serial dilution may be necessary to achieve some of the final sample volumes represented.

Recovery for Non-Human Primate IL-18 Cartridge

Recovery was not necessary as NHP IL-18 shows 5 points of natural linearity.

Linearity

Samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of IL-18 were serially diluted with Sample Diluent to produce samples within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: IL-18/IL-1F4

IL-18 (Interleukin-18) is secreted by macrophages, dendritic cells, and epithelial cells. Circulating mature IL-18 is sequestered by soluble IL-18 binding proteins (IL-18 BP) that inhibit IL-18 bioactivity. IL-18 signals through a receptor complex that contains IL-18 R alpha IL-18 R beta. It synergizes with other cytokines to activate NK, Th1, and Th17 cells and to increase the production of IFN-gamma. It can also promote Th2 cytokine release which reduces the effectiveness of antiviral responses. Increased levels of active IL-18 contribute to the severity of autoimmunity and hypertension, while deficiency of IL-18 results in symptoms of metabolic syndrome. In cancer, IL-18 stimulates Th1 and NK cells to target tumor cells, but it can also promote angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor cell immune evasion.
