Function

Pro-inflammatory cytokine that is involved in a wide variety of processes such as chemotaxis, differentiation, and activation of peripheral immune cells, regulation of cell growth, apoptosis and modulation of angiostatic effects (PubMed:7540647, PubMed:11157474, PubMed:22652417). Plays thereby an important role during viral infections by stimulating the activation and migration of immune cells to the infected sites (By similarity). Mechanistically, binding of CXCL10 to the CXCR3 receptor activates G protein-mediated signaling and results in downstream activation of phospholipase C-dependent pathway, an increase in intracellular calcium production and actin reorganization (PubMed:12750173, PubMed:19151743). In turn, recruitment of activated Th1 lymphocytes occurs at sites of inflammation (PubMed:12750173, PubMed:12663757). Activation of the CXCL10/CXCR3 axis plays also an important role in neurons in response to brain injury for activating microglia, the resident macrophage population of the central nervous system, and directing them to the lesion site. This recruitment is an essential element for neuronal reorganization (By similarity).

Notes

Human IP-10 (CXCL10) ELISA (ab173194) kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of IP-10 protein in human serum and plasma samples. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate human IP-10 with 1.4 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (Pre-coated 384 well Microplate SimpleStep ELISA® ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpeStep ELISA® kits.

C-X-C motif chemokine 10 (CXCL10 or IP-10) is a small 10.8kD protein that is secreted by several cell types in response to interferon-gamma (IFNg). These cell types include monocytes, endothelial cells and fibroblasts. Upon secretion, CXCL10 is cleaved into an 8.7kD biologically active protein to function in chemotaxis for T-cells, NK cells, monocytes/macrophages and dendritic cells. In addition, CXCL10 has antitumor activity through the inhibition of bone marrow colony formation and angiogenesis. CXCL10 elicits its effects by binding to the cell surface chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3).

Activity summary

IP10 also known as CXCL10 is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. It has a molecular mass of approximately 8.7 kDa. IP10 is secreted by several cell types such as monocytes endothelial cells and fibroblasts in response to interferon-gamma (IFN-γ). This protein is involved in immune responses and exhibits various roles especially in chemoattracting cells. Researchers often measure IP10 concentrations using ELISA kits such as the IP-10 ELISA to study its expression levels in different biological contexts.

Biological function summary

IP10 plays a role in modulating the activities of immune cells. It attracts T cells eosinophils monocytes and natural killer (NK) cells by binding to the CXCR3 receptor. IP10 is not part of a larger complex but interacts with other cytokines to influence cell migration and the immune response. High levels of IP10 can reflect strong immune activation which is why it is often measured in inflammatory conditions using standard assays like the IP-10 ELISA kits.

Pathways

The role of IP10 lies within the Th1-type immune response pathway. In this pathway IP10 works alongside other chemokines to recruit and activate immune cells to sites of inflammation or infection. It synergizes with IFN-γ to propagate immune signals. IP10 is also linked with the CXCR3 receptor which plays a critical role in these pathways providing a connection to other proteins such as CXCL9 and CXCL11 which have similar functions in cell-mediated immunity.

Associated diseases and disorders

IP10 is associated with conditions like multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Elevated IP10 levels often correlate with disease activity in these disorders making it a potential biomarker for disease progression. The protein interacts with other inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α in regulating immune activity within these disease contexts. IP10's involvement in recruiting immune cells contributes to the pathogenic inflammation observed in these conditions.
