Use in combination with:

Detection Reagent: Mouse IL‑21 Biotinylated Antibody (Catalog # BAF594)

Standard: Recombinant Mouse IL-21 Protein (Catalog # 594-ML)

Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑21-induced proliferation in the NK-92 human natural killer lymphoma cell line. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.2-2 µg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL Recombinant Mouse IL‑21.

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.

IL‑21 in Mouse Splenocytes. IL‑21 was detected in immersion fixed concanavalin A-stimulated mouse splenocytes using 15 µg/mL Mouse IL‑21 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF594) for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained with the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained (green).

Neutralization View Larger

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL-21 and Neutralization by Mouse IL-21 Antibody. Recombinant Mouse IL-21 (Catalog # 594-ML) stimulates proliferation in the NK-92 human natural killer lymphoma cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Mouse IL-21 (10 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse IL-21 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF594). The ND50 is typically 0.2-2 µg/mL.

Background: IL-21

Interleukin-21 (IL-21) and its receptor appear to play important roles in the regulation of the immune system. IL-21 is most related to IL-2, IL-4, and IL-15. IL-21 R, also called NILR (novel interleukin receptor), is a type I cytokine receptor with 4 conserved cysteine residues and an extracellular WSXWS motif. It is most closely related to IL-2 R beta and IL-4 R alpha. Mouse IL-21 is a 146 amino acid (aa) residue protein with a 24 aa signal peptide. Mouse and human IL-21 share 57% amino acid sequence identity. IL‑21 is expressed by activated T cells. Although not fully elucidated, the IL-2 R gamma ( gamma c) chain appears to play a role in IL-21 R signaling. The IL‑21/IL‑21 R interaction appear to play important roles in B and T cell proliferation after antigen stimulation and NK cell maturation.
