Product overview
Mouse MIP2 ELISA Kit (CXCL2) (ab204517) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of MIP2 (CXCL2) protein in cell culture supernatant, plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse MIP2 (CXCL2) with 0.87 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells stripsA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Notes
Mouse Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-2 (MIP2), also known as C-X-C motif chemokine 2 (CXCL2), is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family. MIP2 was originally identified as a heparin-binding protein, and has been shown to exhibit potent neutrophil chemotactic activity.
Mouse MIP2 c-DNA encodes a 100 amino acid residue precursor protein. The amino-terminal 27 amino acid residues are cleaved from this precursor to generate the mature mouse MIP2. Mouse MIP2 is 63% identical to Mouse KC (another mouse alpha chemokine), and mouse MIP2 is 60% identical to human GROβ and GROγ. Based on these protein sequence similarities, it is likely that mouse MIP2 and KC are homologs of the human GROα, β, and γ chemokines. However, since chemokines with protein sequence homology to human IL-8 have not been identified in mice, it has been suggested that the mouse MIP2 and KC are functional homologs of human IL-8 in mice. A putative mouse homolog of the human IL-8 receptor beta (IL-8 Rβ) has also been cloned. This receptor shows 71% identity to human IL-8 Rβ and 68% identity to human IL-8 Rα. Both mouse MIP2 and KC bind mouse IL-8 Rβ with high affinity.

Function
Produced by activated monocytes and neutrophils and expressed at sites of inflammation. Hematoregulatory chemokine, which, in vitro, suppresses hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation. GRO-beta(5-73) shows a highly enhanced hematopoietic activity. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family. -
Post-translational
modificationsThe N-terminal processed form GRO-beta(5-73) is produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from bone marrow stromal cells. -

Recombinant mouse MIP2 was spiked into 100% serum and diluted in a 2-fold dilution series in Sample Diluent 50BP. Recombinant mouse MIP2 was spiked into 10% cell culture media and diluted in a 2-fold dilution series in Sample Diluent NS. The concentrations of mouse MIP2 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the mouse MIP2 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are graphed (mean +/- SD).

Recombinant mouse MIP2 was spiked into 100% citrate plasma and 50% EDTA plasma and diluted in a 2-fold dilution series in Sample Diluent 25BP. Recombinant mouse MIP2 was spiked into 100% heparin plasma and diluted in a 2-fold dilution series in Sample Diluent 50BP. The concentrations of mouse MIP2 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the mouse MIP2 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are graphed (mean +/- SD).

J774A.1 cells were cultured in HGDMEM with 10% fetal calf serum, and 100 µg/mL of Kanamycin. During the exponential growth phase, J774A.1 cells were treated for 72 hours in the presence and absence of 1.5% PHA and 10 ng/mL of PMA. RAW 264.7 cells were cultured in HGDMEM with 10% fetal calf serum, 2 mM L-glutamine and 100 µg/mL Kanamycin. During the exponential growth phase, RAW264.7 cells were starved for 24 hours and treated in the presence and absence of 5 µg/mL of LPS (Batch #1) or 1% PHA (Batch #2).The concentrations of mouse MIP2 were interpolated from a standard curve diluted in Sample Diluent NS and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are graphed (mean +/- SD).
