Target
Function
Cytokine that binds to and signals through the IL1RL1/ST2 receptor which in turn activates NF-kappa-B and MAPK signaling pathways in target cells. Involved in the maturation of Th2 cells inducing the secretion of T-helper type 2-associated cytokines. Also involved in activation of mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and natural killer cells. Acts as a chemoattractant for Th2 cells, and may function as an 'alarmin', that amplifies immune responses during tissue injury. Induces rapid UCP2-dependent mitochondrial rewiring that attenuates the generation of reactive oxygen species and preserves the integrity of Krebs cycle required for persistent production of itaconate and subsequent GATA3-dependent differentiation of inflammation-resolving alternatively activated macrophages. In quiescent endothelia the uncleaved form is constitutively and abundantly expressed, and acts as a chromatin-associated nuclear factor with transcriptional repressor properties, it may sequester nuclear NF-kappaB/RELA, lowering expression of its targets.

Sandwich ELISA analysis of human IL-33 matched pair antibodies
Elisa assay was performed by coating wells of a 96-well plate with 100 µl per well of capture antibody (HA721935) diluted in carbonate/bicarbonate buffer, at a concentration of 4 µg/ml overnight at 4℃. Wells of the plate were washed, blocked with 150 µl 0.05% tween-20 1%BSA blocking buffer, and incubated with serial diluted human IL-33 protein starting from 1000 pg/ml to 0 pg/ml and detect antibody (HA721936)-Biotin (0.2 µg/ml) for 1 hour at 30℃ with shaking. Then the plate was washed and incubated with 100 µl per well of SA-HRP for 0.5 hour at 30℃ with shaking. Detection was performed using an Ultra TMB Substrate for 10 minutes at room temperature in the dark. The reaction was stopped with sulfuric acid and absorbances were read on a spectrophotometer at 450 nm.
The concentrations of IL-33 were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IL-33 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: cell culture media 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IL-33 concentration was determined to be 379 pg/mL in cell culture media.
