Product overview
Rat IL-17F ELISA Kit (ab239423) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of IL-17F protein in cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Rat IL-17F with 2 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.

Function
Ligand for IL17RA and IL17RC (PubMed:17911633). The heterodimer formed by IL17A and IL17F is a ligand for the heterodimeric complex formed by IL17RA and IL17RC (PubMed:18684971). Involved in stimulating the production of other cytokines such as IL6, IL8 and CSF2, and in regulation of cartilage matrix turnover (PubMed:11591732, PubMed:11591768, PubMed:11574464). Also involved in stimulating the proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and T-cells and in inhibition of angiogenesis (PubMed:11591732). Plays a role in the induction of neutrophilia in the lungs and in the exacerbation of antigen-induced pulmonary allergic inflammation. -

SimpleStep ELISA technology allows the formation of the antibody-antigen complex in one single step, reducing assay time to 90 minutes. Add samples or standards and antibody mix to wells all at once, incubate, wash, and add your final substrate. See protocol for a detailed step-by-step guide.

Rat splenocyte cells were cultured in the presence (treated) or absence (untreated) of 10 ng/mL TPA and 10 ng/mL rat IL-1a for four days. The concentrations of IL-17F were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IL-17F standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: treated splenocyte supernatant 5%, and untreated splenocyte supernatant 100%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IL-17F concentration was determined to be 6,477 pg/mL in neat treated splenocyte supernatant, and 326.4 ng/mL in neat untreated splenocyte supernatant.

Background subtracted data values (mean +/- SD, n=2) are graphed. Note that the IL-17A protein is not detectable with this kit in the range assayed.
