Gene Information

human ... IL21(59067)

General description

Interleukin-21 (IL-21) is a pleiotropic cytokine. It belongs to the common γ-chain cytokines with broad pleiotropic actions. This gene is located on human chromosome 4q27.

Application

Please refer to the attached General ELISA KIT Procedure (sandwich, competitive & Indirect ELISA)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Interleukin-21 (IL-21) regulates chronic viral infection, thereby plays a major role for immune responses in a mouse model of HBV (hepatitis B virus) infection. This gene is linked to celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), type 1 diabetes mellitus (type 1 DM) and psoriatic arthritis. IL-21 has the ability to promote maturation and increase the cytotoxicity of CD8+ T cells and natural killer (NK) cells.
The antibody pair provided in this kit recognizes Human Interleukin-21.
