Scientific Data Images for IL-21 Antibody (MT216G/21.3m)

Neutralization: IL-21 Antibody (MT216G/21.3m) [NBP3-18290]

Neutralization: IL-21 Antibody (MT216G/21.3m) [NBP3-18290]

Neutralization: IL-21 Antibody (MT216G/21.3m) [NBP3-18290] - The neutralizing capacity and ND50 was determined using ELISA andELISpot. A) HEK cells were transfected to express the IL-21 activation pathway with alkaline phosphatase as a reporter. Cells were stimulated in the presence of recombinant human IL-21 (10 ng/ml) with or without serial dilutions of NBP3-18290. After overnight incubation, enzyme activity was measured in ELISA. B) Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were incubated with recombinant IL-21 (10 ng/ml) with or without serial dilutions of NBP3-18290. After 4 days the IgG-secreting B cells were quantified by ELISpot.

Background: IL-21

IL-21 (Interleukin-21) is member of the family of cytokines that utilize the common gamma chain as a receptor subunit. This subunit is also a component of the receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15. IL-21 is produced by activated T follicular helper cells (Tfh), Th17 cells, and NKT cells. It exerts its biological effects through a heterodimeric receptor complex of the common gamma chain and the IL-21-specific IL-21 R. IL-21 supports Tfh cell development, immunoglobulin affinity maturation, plasma cell differentiation, B cell memory responses, and the migration of dendritic cells to draining lymph nodes. It costimulates the activation, proliferation, and survival of CD8+ T cells and NKT cells and promotes Th17 cell polarization. It blocks the generation of regulatory T cells and their suppressive effects on CD4+ T cells. In addition, IL-21 suppresses cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions by limiting allergen-specific IgE production and mast cell degranulation.
