Product details

The Antibody Pair can be used to quantify Human/Monkey IL-8. BSA and Azide free antibody pairs include unconjugated capture and detector antibodies suitable for sandwich ELISAs. The antibodies are provided at an approximate concentration of 1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method. The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Both capture and detector antibodies are rabbit monoclonal antibodies delivering consistent, specific, and sensitive results.

For additional information on the performance of the antibody pair, see the equivalent SimpleStep ELISA® Kit (ab214030), which uses the same antibodies. However, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits. Please note that the range provided for the pairs is only an estimation based on the performance of the related product using the same antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody pair in your assay.

Supplementary information

IL-8 also known as CXCL8 is a cytokine with a molecular weight of approximately 8 kDa. It belongs to the CXC chemokine family and plays a role in the recruitment of neutrophils to sites of inflammation. Cells like monocytes macrophages and endothelial cells express IL-8 after activation by pro-inflammatory signals. The protein exhibits high expression in cells associated with the immune response and inflammation serving as a signaling molecule between these cell types.

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.

IL-8 shows a strong association with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It acts as a biomarker for these diseases often correlating with disease severity and inflammation levels. In rheumatoid arthritis IL-8 contributes to joint inflammation and degradation while in COPD it enhances airway inflammation and tissue damage. The cytokine's involvement in these diseases connects it with other inflammatory mediators such as MMPs and leukotrienes which collectively exacerbate disease pathology.

Target data

Chemotactic factor that mediates inflammatory response by attracting neutrophils, basophils, and T-cells to clear pathogens and protect the host from infection (PubMed : 18692776, PubMed : 7636208). Also plays an important role in neutrophil activation (PubMed : 2145175, PubMed : 9623510). Released in response to an inflammatory stimulus, exerts its effect by binding to the G-protein-coupled receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2, primarily found in neutrophils, monocytes and endothelial cells (PubMed : 1840701, PubMed : 1891716). G-protein heterotrimer (alpha, beta, gamma subunits) constitutively binds to CXCR1/CXCR2 receptor and activation by IL8 leads to beta and gamma subunits release from Galpha (GNAI2 in neutrophils) and activation of several downstream signaling pathways including PI3K and MAPK pathways (PubMed : 11971003, PubMed : 8662698).
