Cat#:EIA-463C;Product Name:Human Interleukin 9, IL9 ELISA Kit;Size:10 plates;Intended use:RUO;Synonym:IL9; interleukin-9; interleukin 9; P40; HP40; IL-9; p40 T-cell and mast cell growth factor; T-cell growth factor p40; p40 cytokine; homolog of mouse T cell and mast cell growth factor 40; OTTHUMP00000159423;Background:Interleukin 9, also known as IL9, is a cytokine (cell signalling molecule) belonging to the group of interleukins. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine produced by T-cells and specifically by CD4+ helper cells that acts as a regulator of a variety of hematopoietic cells. This cytokine stimulates cell proliferation and prevents apoptosis. It functions through the interleukin-9 receptor (IL9R), which activates different signal transducer and activator (STAT) proteins and thus connects this cytokine to various biological processes. The gene encoding this cytokine has been identified as a candidate gene for asthma. Genetic studies on a mouse model of asthma demonstrated that this cytokine is a determining factor in the pathogenesis of bronchial hyperresponsiveness.;Species Reactivity:Human;Application:Quantitative;Storage:Unopened Kit: Store at 2 - 8°C.
