The IL-2 (human), ELISA kit is a colorimetric immunometric enzyme immunoassay kit with results in 3 hours.

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) plays a critical role in the mediation of immune response by acting as a growth and differentiation factor for T cells, as well as B cells, natural killer (NK) cells, lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), monocytes, macrophages, and oligodendrocytes. The human IL-2 receptor can be composed of several combinations of a 55 kDa IL-2Ralpha subunit, a 70-75 kDa IL-2Rβ subunit, and a 64 kDa IL-2Rγ subunit. IL-2 binding affinity varies depending on which combination of subunits is present in the bonding complex, with the high affinity binding site having all three subunits. Studies have shown IL-2 to cause the regression of some types of tumors and it may have implications in immunotherapy and the treatment of infectious diseases and immune deficiencies.
