Human MIP2 (CXCL2) ELISA kit (ab184862) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of MIP2 protein in in human serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate human MIP2 with 1 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.
Macrophage inflammatory protein 2 (MIP2) otherwise known as CXCL2 GRO-beta| or Hematopoietic synergistic factor is a 7.9 kDa heparin-binding chemokine that has potent effects in the response to inflammation and induction of peripheral tolerance. MIP2 shares 70% sequence similarity with mouse and rat MIP2. It is secreted by activated monocytes neutrophils and inflamed mucosal epithelial cells in response to inflammatory stimuli such as IL-1β. MIP2 recruits granulocytic neutrophils and macrophages at sights of inflammation| and causes degranulation of these effector cells at the inflammatory site. It has also been hypothesized that MIP2 acts to synergize the effects of Granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) leading to a larger recruitment of neutrophils and macrophages at the site of inflammation. Research has also suggested that MIP2 is involved in tolerogenic pathways as a lack of the MIP2 receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 are associated with peripheral tolerance. Clinically. MIP2 is being used as a bone marrow transplant regimen to mobilize peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells (PBSCs). Mobilization by MIP2 therapy in combination with G-CSF has been associated with faster immune cell reconstitution after transplantation.
The CXCL2 protein also known as macrophage inflammatory protein 2 (MIP-2) or KC in the mouse model functions as a chemokine. It weighs approximately 7.8 kDa and is part of the CXC chemokine family. CXCL2 is mainly expressed in macrophages neutrophils and certain epithelial cells. It plays an important role in mediating the migration of these cells to sites of inflammation or injury.
CXCL2 attracts and activates neutrophils as part of the innate immune response. It acts independently not as part of a larger complex to provoke a chemotactic response guiding neutrophils to areas of tissue injury. CXCL2 also promotes the release of other cytokines and enzymes that contribute to inflammation. Its activity is mediated through its interaction with receptors like CXCR2 on target cell surfaces.
CXCL2 is involved in inflammatory signaling and leukocyte migration. It holds importance in the chemokine signaling pathway which regulates leukocyte trafficking. CXCL2 interacts with proteins like CXCR2 influencing the inflammation process by activating downstream kinases and other signal transduction molecules such as mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs).
CXCL2 is connected to inflammatory conditions and diseases like sepsis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Elevated levels of CXCL2 can enhance the inflammatory response which is linked to the progression of these conditions. The protein is also associated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) which amplifies inflammation and tissue damage during disease processes.

Specificity of MIP2 on stimulated and non stimulated media supernatants.
Human PBMCs were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin. Cells were cultured for 2 days at 37˚C in the presence or absence of PHA. The concentrations of MIP2 were interpolated from the calibration curve and corrected for sample dilution. The mean MIP2 concentration was 67 pg/mL on unstimulated PBMC supernatants and 773 pg/mL on stimulated PBMCs supernatants.
Levels of MIP2 in human serum samples.
Human MIP2 levels in individual healthy donors. Ten individual healthy donors were evaluated for the presence of MIP2 in serum using this assay. Results were interpolated from the standard curve in Sample Diluent 25BP and corrected for sample dilution (1:4). The mean level of Human MIP2 was found at 84.757 pg/mL with a range of 26.767 – 266.256 pg/mL.
