Name :
Recombinant Human IL-33 Protein

Biological Activity :

Background :
Interleukin 33 (IL-33), also known as DVS27 or NF-HEV (Nuclear Factor from High Endothelial Venules), is a pro-inflammatory protein and a chromatin-associated cytokine of the IL-1 family with high sequence and structural similarity to IL-1 and IL-18. IL-33 protein is expressed highly and rather selectively by high endothelial venule endothelial cells (HEVECs) in human tonsils, Peyer’s patches, and lymph nodes. IL-33 protein has transcriptional regulatory properties, and the researches suggested that IL-33 is a dual-function protein that might act both as a cytokine and as an intracellular nuclear factor. As a type 2 cytokines, IL-33 protein also play a pivotal role in helminthic infection and allergic disorders.

Biological Activity :
1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human IL-33 at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind human IL1RL1 with a linear range of 0.31-5 ng/ml.2. Measured by its ability to induce IL8 secretion by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). The ED50 for this effect is typically 15-150ng/mL.
