(Human IL-9 concentration is pretty low in normal plasma, it may not be detected in this assay).\u003cbr\u003e\nThis assay employs an antibody specific for Human IL-9 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and IL-9 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human IL-9 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of IL-9 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.\u003cbr\u003e\nWe have not been able to detect endogenous Human IL-9 in normal serum with ab100577, only in serum spiked with Human IL-9.\u003cbr\u003e\nOptimization may be required with urine samples.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe standard is affinity purified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nInterleukin-9 (IL-9) sometimes known as a T-cell growth factor is a cytokine with a molecular mass of approximately 14-19 kDa. It is primarily expressed by T helper cells particularly Th2 and Th9 cells. IL-9 comes from the IL-9 gene and plays a significant role in the immune system by affecting various cell types such as mast cells B cells and epithelial cells. Researchers first identified it in the late 1980s and it has continued to be an area of interest due to its diverse functions.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nIL-9 influences immune responses and is important for various processes including cell proliferation and survival. IL-9 activates mast cells which play role in allergy response. It also affects the growth and differentiation of T cells and enhances the function of dendritic cells. IL-9 operates individually and not as part of a larger complex but works closely with its receptor IL-9R to initiate downstream signaling events.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCytokine signaling pathways and JAK-STAT signaling pathways integrate IL-9's function in the immune system. IL-9 activates the JAK-STAT pathway particularly involving proteins like JAK1 and STATs to relay signals that promote immune cell growth and survival. This cytokine also interlinks with other cytokines such as IL-4 and IL-13 playing role in immune regulation and inflammatory responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nIL-9 shows strong correlation with asthma and certain types of cancers particularly Hodgkin's lymphoma. In asthma overproduction of IL-9 can lead to increased mucus production and airway hyperresponsiveness. This relationship makes it a potential target for blocking therapies in asthma treatment. Higher levels of IL-9 correlate with poorer prognosis in some cancers indicating its potential role in tumor growth and immune evasion possibly interacting with IL-6 in such conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855649263785,"sku":"ab100577","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab100577","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
