Nori Human IL-9 ELISA Kit
$461.00 – $832.00
This ELISA kit is for quantification of IL-9 in human. This is a quick ELISA assay that reduces time to 50% compared to the conventional method, and the entire assay only takes 3 hours. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique and uses biotin-streptavidin chemistry to improve the performance of the assays. An antibody specific for IL-9 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any IL-9 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, a detection antibody specific for IL-9 is added to the wells. Following wash to remove any unbound antibody reagent, a detection reagent is added. After intensive wash a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of IL-9 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped, and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background:
Interleukin 9 (IL-9) is a pleiotropic cytokine (cell signalling molecule) belonging to the group of interleukins.[1] IL-9 is produced by variety of cells like mast cells, NKT cells, Th2, Th17, Treg, ILC2, and Th9 cells in different amounts. Among them, Th9 cells are regarded as the major CD4+ T cells that produce IL-9. Il-9 is secreted by CD4+ helper cells that acts as a regulator of a variety of hematopoietic cells.[2] Interleukin 33 (IL-33) induces IL-9 expression and secretion in T cells, which was confirmed by the results obtained in mice by using Human in vitro system.[3] Whereas the report of others confirms that TGF-β is an essential factor for IL-9 induction.[4] For the first time (Lars Blom,Britta C. Poulsen,Bettina M. Jensen,Anker Hansen and Lars K. Poulsen published a journal online in 2011 Jul 6),indicating that TGF-β may be important for production of IL-9 but it is not only the definite requirement for IL-9 induction, since cultures with IL-33 without TGF-β have noticeably increased secretion of IL-9, suggesting an important role of IL-33, even though that the effect was not found significant on the gene level.[5] This cytokine stimulates cell proliferation and prevents apoptosis. It functions through the interleukin-9 receptor (IL9R), which activates different signal transducer and activator (STAT) proteins namely STAT1, STAT3 and STAT5 and thus connects this cytokine to various biological processes. [6] The gene encoding this cytokine has been identified as a candidate gene for asthma. Genetic studies on a mouse model of asthma demonstrated that this cytokine is a determining factor in the pathogenesis of bronchial hyperresponsiveness. Interleukin-9 has also shown to inhibit melanoma growth in mice.[7] Additionally, it gives rise to the multiplication of hematologic neoplasias and also Hodgkin’s lymphoma in humans but IL-9 also has antitumor properties in solid tumors, for example melanoma.
