Mouse IL-31 ELISA Kit for the quantitative detection of mouse Interleukin-31 in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA).

Interleukin-31, also known as IL-31 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL31 gene. The IL31 gene is mapped to chromosome 12q24.31 and the mouse gene maps to a syntenic region on chromosome 5. IL31, which is made principally by activated Th2-type T cells, interacts with a heterodimeric receptor consisting of IL31RA and OSMR that is constitutively expressed on epithelial cells and keratinocytes. IL31 may be involved in the promotion of allergic skin disorders and in regulating other allergic diseases, such as asthma.
