This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Interleukin 4 (IL4). No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Interleukin 4 (IL4) and analogues was observed.

For unopened kit: All the reagents should be kept according to the labels on vials. The Standard, Detection Reagent A, Detection Reagent B and the 96-well strip plate should be stored at -20 degree C upon receipt while the others should be at 4 degree C. For opened kit: When the kit is opened, the remaining reagents still need to be stored according to the above storage condition. Besides, please return the unused wells to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal along entire edge of zip-seal. The stability of kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.

Samples: Serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, Cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Assay Type: Sandwich. Detection Range: 7.81-500pg/mL. Sensitivity: Typically less than 3.2pg/mL.

Precision: Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Interleukin 4 (IL4) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Interleukin 4 (IL4) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV(%) = SD/meanX100 . Intra-Assay: CV<10% . Inter-Assay: CV<12% . Assay Procedure Summary: 1. Prepare all reagents, samples and standards;. 2. Add 100uL standard or sample to each well. Incubate 2 hours at 37 degree C;. 3. Aspirate and add 100uL prepared Detection Reagent A. Incubate 1 hour at 37 degree C;. 4. Aspirate and wash 3 times;. 5. Add 100uL prepared Detection Reagent B. Incubate 30 minutes at 37 degree C;. 6. Aspirate and wash 5 times;. 7. Add 90uL Substrate Solution. Incubate 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C;. 8. Add 50uL Stop Solution. Read at 450nm immediately.

Principle of the Assay: The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Interleukin 4 (IL4). Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Interleukin 4 (IL4). Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Interleukin 4 (IL4), biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm 10nm. The concentration of Interleukin 4 (IL4) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

The protein encoded by this gene is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by activated T cells. This cytokine is a ligand for interleukin 4 receptor. The interleukin 4 receptor also binds to IL13, which may contribute to many overlapping functions of this cytokine and IL13. STAT6, a signal transducer and activator of transcription, has been shown to play a central role in mediating the immune regulatory signal of this cytokine. This gene, IL3, IL5, IL13, and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q, with this gene particularly close to IL13. This gene, IL13 and IL5 are found to be regulated coordinately by several long-range regulatory elements in an over 120 kilobase range on the chromosome. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

IL4: Participates in at least several B-cell activation processes as well as of other cell types. It is a costimulator of DNA-synthesis. It induces the expression of class II MHC molecules on resting B-cells. It enhances both secretion and cell surface expression of IgE and IgG1. It also regulates the expression of the low affinity Fc receptor for IgE (CD23) on both lymphocytes and monocytes. Genetic variations in IL4 may be a cause of susceptibility to ischemic stroke (ISCHSTR); also known as cerebrovascular accident or cerebral infarction. A stroke is an acute neurologic event leading to death of neural tissue of the brain and resulting in loss of motor, sensory and/or cognitive function. Ischemic strokes, resulting from vascular occlusion, is considered to be a highly complex disease consisting of a group of heterogeneous disorders with multiple genetic and environmental risk factors. Belongs to the IL-4/IL-13 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
