Assay Principle
This sandwich ELISA quantifies mouse interleukin-10 (gene Il10) in cell culture supernatants, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA, citrate). Strips are pre-coated with a capture antibody. After the sample is added, a biotinylated detection antibody binds the captured protein, and an avidin–biotin–peroxidase complex supplies the enzyme. TMB develops color in proportion to the bound target; the reaction is stopped and read at 450 nm, and concentrations are read from the standard curve.
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a key anti-inflammatory cytokine produced by T cells, B cells, macrophages and other immune cells. Through the IL10RA/IL10RB receptor, JAK1 and STAT3, it suppresses the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and antigen presentation by macrophages and dendritic cells, helping limit tissue damage during immune responses.
