Use in combination with:

Detection Reagent: Human IL‑13 Biotinylated Antibody (Catalog # BAF213)

Standard: Recombinant Human IL-13 Protein (Catalog # 213-ILB)

Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑13-induced proliferation in the TF‑1 human erythroleukemic cell line. Kitamura, T. et al. (1989) J. Cell Physiol. 140:323. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.15-0.75 ug/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL‑13.

Please Note: Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application. General Protocols are available in the Technical Information section on our website.

Detection of IL‑13 in Human PBMCs by Flow Cytometry. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated with 5 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL-4 (Catalog # 204-IL) and 10 µg/mL Goat Anti-Human IFN-gamma Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-285-NA) for 3 days were stained with Mouse Anti-Human IL-13 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB213) followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B) and Mouse Anti-Human CD4 PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB3791P). Quadrant markers were set based on control antibody staining (Catalog # MAB002).

Neutralization Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑13 and Neutralization by Human IL‑13 Antibody. View Larger

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑13 and Neutralization by Human IL‑13 Antibody. Recombinant Human IL-13 (Catalog # 213-ILB) stimulates proliferation in the TF-1 human erythroleukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-13 (10 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concen-trations of Mouse Anti-Human IL-13 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB213). The ND50 is typically 0.15-0.75 µg/mL.

Background: IL-13

IL-13 is a 17 kDa immunoregulatory cytokine that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma and atopy. It is secreted by Th1 and Th2 CD4+ T cells, NK cells, visceral smooth muscle cells, eosinophils, mast cells, and basophils (1-3). IL-13 circulates as a monomer with two internal disulfide bonds that contribute to a bundled four alpha -helix configuration (4, 5). Mature human IL-13 shares 57%, 59%, and 94% amino acid sequence identity with mouse, rat, and rhesus IL-13, respectively. Despite the low homology, it exhibits cross-species activity between human, mouse, and rat (6, 7). IL-13 has diverse activities on numerous cell types (8). On macrophages, IL-13 suppresses the production of proinflammatory cytokines and other cytotoxic substances. On B cells, IL-13 induces immunoglobulin class switching to IgE, upregulates the expression of MHC class II, CD71, CD72, and CD23, and costimulates proliferation. IL-13 upregulates IL-6 while downregulating IL-1 and TNF-alpha production by fibroblasts and endothelial cells. IL-13 binds with low affinity to IL-13 R alpha 1, triggering IL-13 R alpha 1 association with IL-4 R alpha. This high affinity receptor complex also functions as the type 2 IL-4 receptor complex (9, 10). Additionally, IL-13 binds with high affinity to IL-13 R alpha 2 which is expressed intracellularly, on the cell surface, and as a soluble molecule (11-14). IL-13 R alpha 2 regulates the bioavailability of both IL-13 and IL-4 and is over-expressed in glioma and several bronchial pathologies (10, 15, 16). Compared to wild type IL-13, the atopy-associated R110Q variant of IL-13 elicits increased responsiveness from eosinophils that express low levels of IL-13 R alpha 2 (17).
