Function
Growth regulator. Inhibits the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines. Stimulates proliferation of AIDS-KS cells. It regulates cytokine production, including IL-6, G-CSF and GM-CSF from endothelial cells. Uses both type I OSM receptor (heterodimers composed of LIFR and IL6ST) and type II OSM receptor (heterodimers composed of OSMR and IL6ST). Involved in the maturation of fetal hepatocytes, thereby promoting liver development and regeneration (By similarity).

Notes
Human Oncostatin M Matched Antibody Pair Kits include a capture and a biotinylated detector antibody pair, along with a calibrated protein standard, suitable for sandwich ELISA. The Matched Antibody Pair Kit can be used to quantify native and recombinant human Oncostatin M.Optimization of the kit reagents to sample type, immunoassay format or instrumentation may be required. Guidelines for use of this kit in a standard 96-well microplate sandwich ELISA using HRP/TMB system of colorimetric detection is described in this assay procedure for the purposes of quantification.Protocol information and tips on the use of the Matched Antibody Pair kits for sandwich ELISA can be found on our . An accessory pack can be purchased which includes buffer reagents required to perform 10 x 96-well plate sandwich ELISAs (ELISA Accessory Pack ab210905).For additional information on the performance of the antibody pair used in this kit, please see our equivalent SimpleStep ELISA kit Human Oncostatin M/OSM ELISA Kit ab215543. Please note that while the antibody pair is the same provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits.

- Activity summary
Oncostatin M (OSM) also known as Oncostatin M protein or OSM protein is a cytokine with significant roles in inflammation and hematopoiesis. This protein weighs around 28 kDa and is expressed mainly in activated T cells monocytes and macrophages. It interacts with specific receptors on the cell surface to transmit signals that regulate cell growth and function. Oncostatin M is part of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family contributing to various cellular processes.
- Biological function summary
Oncostatin M modulates a range of cellular activities including cell proliferation differentiation and apoptosis. This cytokine affects diverse cell types such as fibroblasts endothelial cells and epithelial cells showing particular influence in processes like tissue remodeling and immune response. It acts as a monomer and does not need assembly into a larger complex to exert its function. Its ability to trigger gene expression differentiates it from other closely related cytokines.
- Pathways
Oncostatin M involves itself in significant pathways like the JAK/STAT signaling pathway and the MAPK pathway. Through these pathways it promotes signal transduction essential for immune regulation and cellular response to external stimuli. OSM interacts with proteins like the gp130 receptor a common signaling component for cytokine receptors in its family and influences downstream effectors involved in these pathways.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Oncostatin M associates itself with inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and cardiovascular disorders. Its elevated levels in pathological conditions highlight its role in exacerbating inflammatory responses. In rheumatoid arthritis OSM promotes synovial inflammation while in cardiovascular diseases it may influence vascular remodeling. Connections to inflammatory proteins such as IL-6 further highlight its part in driving disease pathogenesis making it an intriguing target for therapeutic intervention.
