Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a member of the IL-1 family of cytokines and shares numerous immunoregulatory functions with IL-12. The functional IL-18 receptor complex is composed of two subunits designated IL-18 R alpha (also known as IL-1 R5 and IL-1 Rrp) and IL-18 R beta (also known as IL-1 R7 and AcPL). Both IL-18 R alpha and IL-18 R beta belong to the IL-1 receptor superfamily. Although IL-18 R alpha by itself binds IL-18 with low affinity and IL-18 R beta does not bind IL-18 in vitro, co-expression of IL‑18 R alpha and IL‑18 R beta is required for high affinity binding and IL-18 responsiveness. Human IL-18 R cDNA encodes a 541 amino acid (aa) precursor type I membrane protein with a hydrophobic signal, an extracellular domain comprised of three immunoglobulin-like domains, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic region of approximately 200 aa. Human and mouse IL-18 R share 65% amino acid sequence homology. IL-18 R is widely expressed in numerous tissues including spleen, thymus, leukocyte, liver, lung, heart, small and large intestine, prostate and placenta.

Application: Flow CytometrySample Tested: Peripheral blood T cells and Peripheral blood monocytesSpecies: HumanVerified Customer | Posted 05/31/2016Detection of IL18R alpha /IL-1R5 expression in lymphocytes and monocytes by flow cytometry: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated by Ficoll gradient method from freshly drawn blood and stained for IL18Ralpha using the R&D mouse Anti-human IL-18alpha/IL-1R5-APC antibody (cat# FAB840A). As suggested by the manufacturer, 10ul of antibody was used per 10e6 cells. After gating on CD3+ lymphocytes (Fig.1a) and CD14+ monocytes (Fig.1b), IL-18Ralpha expression on T lymphocytes and monocytes were analyzed. Panel 1 shows Fluorescence Minus One (FMO) which served as negative control; panel 2 shows IL18alpha+ cells; panel 3 shows overlay of panel 1 and panel 2.
