Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: E. coli-derived rat IL33 recombinant protein (Position: A102-M264). (reported region: A102-M264).
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 35 kDa; calculated MW: 31 kDa
- Reactivity: Mouse,Rat
- Applications: ELISA, IHC, WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
interleukin 33. Interleukin 33 (IL-33) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL33 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that binds to the IL1RL1/ST2 receptor. The encoded protein is involved in the maturation of Th2 cells and the activation of mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and natural killer cells. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Functional note: Cytokine that binds to and signals through the IL1RL1/ST2 receptor which in turn activates NF-kappa-B and MAPK signaling pathways in target cells. Involved in the maturation of Th2 cells inducing the secretion of T-helper type 2-associated cytokines. Also involved in activation of mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and natural killer cells. Acts as a chemoattractant for Th2 cells, and may function as an alarmin, that amplifies immune responses during tissue injury (By similarity). Reported localization: Nucleus.
Research relevance and current trends
- Angiogenesis: Researchers commonly examine how Il33 relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
- Cardiovascular: Researchers commonly examine how Il33 relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
- Cytokines: Researchers commonly examine how Il33 relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative Il33 levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.
- IHC/IHC-F: assess spatial distribution of Il33 across tissue regions and cell types using matched controls.
- ELISA-compatible use: when applicable, interpret signal as relative abundance across sample sets with consistent handling and dilution strategy.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Specificity notes: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Cross-reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Isoforms and PTMs: Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.
- Controls: Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD/KO samples when available.
