IL-22 ELISA Kit (Interleukin-22)
INTENDED USE
Human IL-22 ELISA kit is designed for measuring in vitro quantitative amounts of interleukin-22 (IL-22) in human tissue homogenates, serum, biological fluids and plasma. This assay has a minimum detection limit of 9.375 pg/ml.
BACKGROUND
Interleukin-22 (IL-22) which is also called TIF (IL-10-related T cell-derived inducible factor), a newly identified cytokine which displays 22% amino acid homology to IL-10 and signals through class II cytokine receptor proteins. It can be produced by dendritic cells, natural killer cells and T-cells during either a tissue inflammation, bacterial infection or auto-immunity. It has the ability to act upon innate immunity cells via its receptors which are known to be expressed exclusively on these cells. This gives it an important function as a protective molecule which has the ability to counteract the destructive nature of the immune response in order to limit the damage to these tissues.
Recently, an IL-22 expressing T helper cell subset which is referred to as Th22 has been characterized. The expression is found to be also elevated in psoriatic skin inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease and atopic dermatitis. Psoriatic patients display a strong elevation of it at the plasma level, which also directly correlates with the disease severity. The expression in CD4+ T helper cells has been found to be linked with Th7 and Th17.
