Function

Immune regulatory cytokine that acts as a suppressor of innate inflammatory and immune responses involved in curbing excessive inflammation. Signaling can occur via two mechanisms, intracellularly through nuclear translocation with SMAD3 and extracellularly after secretion and binding to its receptor composed of IL18R1 and IL18RAP. Suppresses, or reduces, pro-inflammatory cytokine production, including IL1A and IL6, as well as CCL12, CSF1, CSF2, CXCL13, IL1B, IL23A and IL1RN, but spares anti-inflammatory cytokines. Inhibits dendritic cell activation.

Notes

While the standard is the same as the one provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, it cannot be treated as the consumable provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kit due to differences in its concentration calibration.

Abcam guarantee that this protein standard is suitable for use in a sandwich ELISA. Individual results may vary due to differences in technique, laboratory equipment, buffers, and other experimental factors. The detection range provided for this protein standard is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data.

The protein concentration is the concentration after validation on our sandwich ELISA platform. This Standard protein is guaranteed to work with our Capture and Detector antibodies in sELISA. Please contact our Scientific Support team to know which antibody pair is suitable for this protein.

Activity summary

IL-37 also known as IL-1F7 is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 25 kDa. IL-37 is mainly expressed in tissues like the kidney thymus testis and uterus with lower levels in the bone marrow and placenta. Researchers identify this protein in various cells such as monocytes which are key players in the immune system.

Biological function summary

IL-37 functions within the immune response by acting as a critical anti-inflammatory cytokine. It does not form a larger complex for its activity but instead interacts directly with various immune cells. IL-37 is capable of reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production and dampening the immune response when necessary thereby providing a mechanism to prevent excessive inflammation and tissue damage.

Pathways

IL-37 plays a role in pathways like the inflammatory response and immune regulation. Within these systems it interacts with proteins such as IL-18 and IL-18BP (binding protein) which helps modulate its activity. IL-37 can also influence the NF-kB pathway an essential pathway in regulating the immune response by indirectly reducing inflammation.

Associated diseases and disorders

IL-37 is associated with conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease. These disorders involve chronic inflammation where IL-37 might serve a protective role by reducing excessive inflammatory signals. In these contexts IL-37 interacts with other inflammatory cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-α which are known to be elevated in such diseases. By potentially mitigating these signals IL-37 helps in managing the inflammatory aspects of these disorders.
