Function
Human Interleukin-31 (IL-31) is a 24 kDa, short-chain member of the alpha -helical family of cytokines. The human IL-31 cDNA encodes a 164 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 23 aa signal peptide and a 141 aa mature protein. The mature region shows four alpha -helices which would be expected to show a typical up‑up‑down‑down topology. Human and mouse IL-31 share 24% aa sequence identity in the mature region. IL-31 is mainly associated with activated T cells and preferentially expressed by Th2 rather than Th1 cells. IL-31 signals via a heterodimeric receptor complex composed of a 120 kDa, gp130-related molecule termed IL‑31 RA (also GPL and GLM-R) and the 180 kDa oncostatin M receptor (OSM R beta ). In the complex, IL-31 directly binds to GPL, not OSM R. IL-31 signaling has been shown to involve the Jak/STAT pathway, the PI3 kinase/AKT cascade, and the MAP kinase pathway. Although multiple isoforms of IL-31 RA are known, only a form that contains the

Standard curve of human IL31 matched pair antibodies:
Sandwich ELISA analysis of human IL31 matched pair antibodies Elisa assay was performed by coating wells of a 96-well plate with 100 µl per well of capture antibody (HA721931) diluted in carbonate/bicarbonate buffer, at a concentration of 2 µg/ml overnight at 4℃. Wells of the plate were washed, blocked with 150 µl 0.05% tween-20 1% BSA blocking buffer, and incubated with serial diluted human IL31 protein (HA210923) starting from 3800 pg/ml to 0 pg/ml and detect antibody (HA721932, Biotin, 0.2 µg/ml) for 1 hour at 30℃ with shaking. Then the plate was washed and incubated with 100 µl per well of SA-HRP for 0.5 hour at 30℃ with shaking. Detection was performed using an Ultra TMB Substrate for 10 minutes at room temperature in the dark. The reaction was stopped with sulfuric acid and absorbances were read on a spectrophotometer at 450 nm.
Interpolated concentrations of spiked IL-31 in cell culture media samples.
The concentrations of IL-31 were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IL-31 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: cell culture media 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2).
