Application Notes:
IL18 (interleukin 18) is a cytokine that shares similarities in structure with IL1, and is produced by macrophages and other cells. IL18 has been reported to stimulate T cells proliferation and NK cell activity, besides, murine IL18 has been found to enchance the production of INFgamma in spleen cells in vitro. Thus, a stimulation assay was conducted to detect the activity of IL18 using murine spleen cells. Briefly, murine spleen cells were seeded into wells of 6-well plates at a density of 2*1x106 cells/ml in RPMI-1640 with the addition of various concentrations of IL18. After incubation for 48 hours, the concentration of INFgamma in the cell supernatant was detected using an ELISA kit. INFgamma levels in the cell supernatant of spleen cells increased significantly after stimulated with IL18.
