Human IL-10 ELISA Kit has been used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect interleukin-10 (IL-10) in the plasma of uremic patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD).
일반 설명
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an immunosuppressive cytokine produced by a variety of mammalian cell types including macrophages, monocytes, T cells and B cells. Murine IL-10 is inactive on human cells. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 1q31-32.
Biochem/physiol Actions
IL-10 (interleukin 10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine. IL-10 inhibits the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 and TNF (tumor necrosis factor)-α. Like IL-4, IL-10 enhances humoral immune responses and attenuates cell-mediated immune reactions. Polymorphisms in the IL-10 gene are associated with higher risk of preeclampsia, ankylosing spondylitis, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma. Polymorphism in IL-10 at -1082A/G is associated with diabetic nephropathy.
