Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize IL‑15-induced proliferation in the MO7e human megakaryocytic leukemic cell line. Avanzi, G. et al. (1988) Br. J. Haematol. 69:359. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.1-0.5 µg/mL in the presence of 5 ng/mL Recombinant Human IL‑15.

Please Note: Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application. General Protocols are available in the Technical Information section on our website.

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑15 and Neutralization by Human IL‑15 Antibody. Recombinant Human IL-15 (Catalog # 247-ILB) stimulates proliferation in the MO7e human megakaryocytic leukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by Resazurin (Catalog # AR002). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human IL-15 (5 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse Anti-Human IL-15 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2471). The ND50 is typically 0.1-0.5 µg/mL.

Detection of IL‑15 in Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated with 1µg/mL LPS for 16 hrs by Flow Cytometry Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated with 1µg/mL LPS for 16 hrs were stained with Mouse Anti-Human IL‑15 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2471, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB002, open histogram) followed by Fluorescein-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0103B). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with Flow Cytometry Fixation Buffer (Catalog # FC004) and permeabilized with Flow Cytometry Permeabilization/Wash Buffer I (Catalog # FC005).

Background: IL-15

Interleukin 15 (IL-15) is a widely expressed 14 kDa cytokine that is structurally and functionally related to IL-2 (1‑3). Mature human IL‑15 shares 70% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat IL-15. Alternate splicing generates isoforms of IL-15 with either a long or short signal peptide (LSP or SSP), and the SSP isoform is retained intracellularly (4). IL-15 binds with high affinity to IL-15 R alpha (5). It binds with lower affinity to a complex of IL-2 R beta and the common gamma chain ( gamma c) which are also subunits of the IL-2 receptor complex (1, 6). IL-15 associates with IL-15 R alpha in the endoplasmic reticulum, and this complex is expressed on the cell surface (7, 8). The dominant mechanism of IL-15 action is known as transpresentation in which IL-15 and IL-15 R alpha are coordinately expressed on the surface of one cell and interact with complexes of IL-2 R beta / gamma c on adjacent cells (9). This enables cells to respond to IL-15 even if they do not express IL-15 R alpha (8, 10). Soluble IL-15-binding forms of IL-15 R alpha can be generated by proteolytic shedding or alternate splicing (11‑13). These molecules retain the ability to bind tightly to IL-15 and can either inhibit or augment IL-15 function (5, 12, 13). Consistent with its shared use of IL-2 receptor subunits, IL-15 induces IL-2-like effects in lymphocyte development and homeostasis (3). It is particularly important for the maintenance and activation of NK cells and CD8+ memory T cells (3). IL-15 also exerts pleiotropic effects on other hematopoietic cells and non-immune cells (2). Ligation of membrane-associated IL-15/IL-15 R alpha complexes induces reverse signaling that promotes cellular adhesion, tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins, and cytokine secretion by the IL-15/IL-15 R alpha expressing cells (14, 15).
