Scientific Data Images for Human IL-13 R alpha1 Antibody

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑13 and Neutralization by Human IL‑13 R alpha1 Antibody.

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑13 and Neutralization by Human IL‑13 R alpha1 Antibody.

Recombinant Human IL-13 (Catalog # 213-ILB) stimulates prolif-eration in the TF-1 human erythroleukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-13 (10 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Human IL-13 Ra1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152). The ND50 is typically 10-30 µg/mL.
Detection of IL-13 Ra1 antibody in Human Granulocytes antibody by Flow Cytometry.

Detection of IL-13 R alpha1 in Human Granulocytes by Flow Cytometry.

Human whole blood granulocytes were stained with Goat Anti-Human IL-13 Ra1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152, filled histogram) or control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0107).
IL-13 Ra1 antibody in Human Skin by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

IL‑13 R alpha1 in Human Skin.

IL-13 Ra1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human skin using Goat Anti-Human IL-13 Ra1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF152) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Background: IL-13 R alpha 1

Two type 1 membrane proteins belonging to the hemopoietin receptor family have been cloned and shown to bind IL-13 with differing affinities. The lower affinity IL-13 binding protein, previously designated IL-13 R alpha, IL-13 R alpha' or NR4, is now referred to as IL-13 R alpha1. The high-affinity IL-13 binding protein, previously also designated IL-13 R or IL-13 R alpha', is now referred to as IL-13 R alpha2. The human IL-13 R alpha1 was originally cloned based on sequence homology to the mouse IL-13 R alpha1. The IL‑13 R alpha1 cDNA encodes a 427 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a putative 21 aa residue signal peptide, a 324 aa residue extracellular domain, a 23 aa residue transmembrane region and a 59 aa residue cytoplasmic tail. Human and mouse IL-13 R alpha1 share 76% aa sequence identity. The extracellular domain of IL‑13 R alpha1 is also closely related to that of IL-13 R alpha2. IL-13 R alpha1 has been shown to combine with the IL-4 R alpha to form a high-affinity receptor complex capable of transducing an IL-13-dependent proliferative signal. The role of IL-13 R alpha2 in IL-13 signaling remains to be elucidated.
