Background: The Th2 cytokine Interleukin-13 (IL-13) plays a critical role in allergen-induced airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR). Two different receptors exist for IL-13, designated IL-13Rα1 and 2. IL-13Rα1 exists as a heterodimer of IL-13Rα1 and IL-4Rα as a signaling subunit, whereas IL-13Rα2 acts as a decoy receptor for IL-13. Furthermore, TNFα or IL-4 stimulation induces IL-13Rα2 upregulation, while IL-13Rα1 is constitutively expressed. Cell surface localization of IL-13Rα2 abrogates IL-13 signaling, thus IL-13 induced translocation of the receptor from the cytoplasm provides a mechanism for negative-feedback of IL-13 signaling. IL-13Rα1 expression is predominant in B cells, monocytes and T cells, whereas IL-13Rα2 expression is highest in glioma cells.
Purification and Purity: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 96% (by SDS-PAGE).
Storage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Specificity: IL13RA2 polyclonal antibodydetects endogenous levels of IL13RA2 protein.
