Human Interleukin 22 ELISA designed for accurate quantitation of endogenous human IL-22 in healthy & disease sera/plasma, and tissue culture media samples with an LLOQ of 0.78 pg/ml. This assay measures unbound (free) IL-22. IL-22 Binding Protein (IL-22BP) may interfere with the assay if present at high concentrations.

Linearity EDTA-Plasma Samples
Parallelism of Disease Serum: Four Atopic Dermatitis (AD) sera with high endogenous IL-22 levels were assayed in duplicate for reliable quantitation after dilution. Samples were diluted down to 16-fold. All samples fell within 100+/-20% of neat of value.
Forty serum samples from various diseased volunteers were assayed on PBL's 41701-1 kit. PBL's kit detected low & high endogenous levels in all 40 disease state samples. (AD=Atopic Dermatitis, RA=Rheumatoid Arthritis, SLE=Systemic Lupus Erythematosus)
PBL’s IL-22 ELISA is intended for quantification of IL-22 in Tissue Culture Media (TCM), and complex matrices such as serum and plasma. The high-affinity form of the IL-22 binding protein (IL22-BP) does inhibit this assay which suggests the ELISA may measure free IL-22 in samples.

Parallelism of Normal Human Serum (NHS)
Three NHS samples with high levels of endogenous IL-22 were assayed in duplicate to assess reliable quantification after dilution within the standard curve range. Endogenous samples were diluted in Standard Diluent down to a 16-fold dilution. All samples fell within 100 ± 20% of the neat value. Error bars indicate the standard deviation.
Parallelism of Disease State Serum
Four Atopic Dermatitis (AD) serum samples with high levels of endogenous IL-22 were assayed in duplicate to assess reliable quantification after dilution within the standard curve range. Samples were diluted in Standard Diluent (SD) down to a 16-fold dilution. All samples fell within 100 ± 20% of the neat value. Error bars indicate the standard deviation.

Representative Standard Curves of PBL and Competitor A
PBL’s and Competitor A’s standards were assayed on the 41701 PBL ELISA. Figure 13 shows the dose response curves and absorbance values in Standard Diluent (SD). Competitor A’s standard exhibits a lower dose response compared to PBL’s standard, as well as a lower percent recovery, which is less than 80% of the expected value. Competitor A’s standard curve demonstrated less sensitivity than PBL’s IL-22 ELISA.
Comparison of Percent Recovery Curves of PBL and Competitor A
Curves The figure below shows the recovery of the individual IL-22 standards at various concentrations. Competitor A’s standard was backfitted against PBL human cell-expressed standard, which was used to interpolate the concentrations of IL-22 and calculate the percent recovery of the curves from the expected value. PBL’s ELISA exhibited higher percent recovery than Competitor A.

Background
IL-22 is a member of the IL-10 family of cytokines1. Other names include IL-TIF and Zcyto18. IL-22 is produced by a variety of cells including Th1, Th17, Th22 T-cells, NKT cells, ILC3, neutrophils and macrophages2. Targeting primarily non-hemopoietic cells such as stromal and epithelial cells, IL-22 exerts both protective effects, such as hepatocyte and epithelial cell survival, and pro-inflammatory effects. It is also implicated in autoimmune diseases such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Psoriasis3. IL-22 is often considered a hallmark of IL-17 driven immune responses4.
The Total Human Interleukin 15 ELISA measures endogenous human IL-15 at or near basal levels with LLOQ of 0.51 pg/ml in serum, plasma, and cell culture media. This ELISA detects both free and bound forms of IL-15 (IL-15/IL-15R complex). Product Name: VeriKine-HS Total Human Interleukin 15…
