Product details
Abcam's IL-8 Feline ELISA Kit (ab193688) is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of feline IL-8 in serum, plasma (feline IL8 concentration is pretty low in normal plasma, it may not be detected in this assay) and cell culture supernatant.
This assay employs an antibody specific for feline IL-8 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and the immobilized antibody captures IL-8 present in the samples. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-feline IL8 antibody is added. After washing away any unbound biotinylated antibody, an HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. After incubation, the wells are again washed, followed by the addition of a TMB substrate solution to the wells. Color will develop in proportion to the amount of IL-8 bound in each well. Addition of the Stop Solution will change the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Biological function summary
IL-8 functions as a chemoattractant for neutrophils and lymphocytes facilitating their movement towards the site of infection or injury. It does not form part of a larger protein complex but operates individually to enhance immune cell migration. IL-8 possesses unique binding motifs allowing it to interact with specific receptors namely CXCR1 and CXCR2 on target cells. This binding triggers cellular responses leading to effective immune surveillance and response to inflammatory stimuli.
Pathways
IL-8 operates within important inflammatory and immune response pathways. It forms a part of the NF-κB signaling cascade which activates in response to stress signals promoting the expression of other inflammatory mediators. Additionally it engages in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway influencing cellular responses such as proliferation and differentiation. The interaction of IL-8 with these pathways highlights its role in modulating immune responses and highlights its interaction with other proteins such as TNF-α and IL-1β.
