IL17RA ELISA Kit (Human) (OKBB00812)

Description of target: Interleukin 17 receptor A, also known as IL17RA and CDw217 (cluster of differentiation w217), is a human gene. The IL17R gene is mapped to 22q11.22-q11.23 by radiation hybrid analysis. Interleukin 17A (IL17A) is a proinflammatory cytokine secreted by activated T-lymphocytes. It is a potent inducer of the maturation of CD34-positive hematopoietic precursors into neutrophils. The protein encoded by this gene is a ubiquitous type I membrane glycoprotein that binds with low affinity to interleukin 17A. Interleukin 17A and its receptor play a pathogenic role in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Like other cytokine receptors, this receptor likely has a multimeric structure. Also, it is showed that mouse Il17r bound HSV-13 and mouse Il17. Recombinant soluble Il17r inhibited mitogen-induced T-cell proliferation and Il2 production. ;Species reactivity: Human;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <10pg/ml
