Function
Cytokine that plays important roles in allergic inflammation and immune response to parasite infection (PubMed:8096327, PubMed:8097324). Synergizes with IL2 in regulating interferon-gamma synthesis (PubMed:8096327). Stimulates B-cell proliferation, and activation of eosinophils, basophils, and mast cells (PubMed:7903680, PubMed:8759755). Plays an important role in controlling IL33 activity by modulating the production of transmembrane and soluble forms of interleukin-1 receptor-like 1/IL1RL1 (By similarity). Displays the capacity to antagonize Th1-driven proinflammatory immune response and downregulates synthesis of many proinflammatory cytokines including IL1, IL6, IL10, IL12 and TNF-alpha through a mechanism that partially involves suppression of NF-kappa-B (By similarity). Functions also on nonhematopoietic cells, including endothelial cells where it induces vascular cell adhesion protein 1/VCAM1, which is important in the recruitment of eosinophils (PubMed:8639787). Exerts its biological effects through its receptors which comprises the IL4R chain and the IL13RA1 chain, to activate JAK1 and TYK2, leading to the activation of STAT6 (PubMed:9013879). Aside from IL13RA1, another receptor IL13RA2 acts as a high affinity decoy for IL13 and mediates internalization and depletion of extracellular IL13 (PubMed:21622864).

Notes
Human IL-13 is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Human IL-13 in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.
The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:
- Sandwich ELISA
- FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF
- Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
- Bead-based assays
- AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
- DELFIA® immunoassays
- Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
- Multiplex
Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:
- Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
- Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.
We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.
Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.
Please note:
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.
The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.
We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.
Antibody properties:
Capture antibody: recombinant rabbit monoclonal (unconjugated) – 100 µg
Detector antibody: recombinant rabbit monoclonal (unconjugated) - 100 µg
Concentration: ~1 mg/ml
Storage buffer: 100% PBS
Form: Liquid
Isotype: IgG
Recombinant monoclonal antibodies offer several advantages including:
- High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- Improved sensitivity and specificity
- Long-term security of supply
- Animal-free production
