IL-1R2 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, hFc)

Cat. No.: HY-P74820
Handling Instructions

IL-1R2 is a competitive endogenous inhibitor of IL-1 signaling. IL-1R2 serves as a decoy receptor and competes with IL-1R1 for IL-1, it can also form a complex with IL-1RAP once it binds IL-1. IL-1R2 is implicated in various IL-1-mediated inflammatory diseases. IL-1R2 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, hFc) is a recombinant mouse IL-1R2 protein with an hFc tag at the C-terminus and is expressed in HEK293 cells. It consists of 355 amino acids (M1-E355).

Description

IL-1R2 is a competitive endogenous inhibitor of IL-1 signaling. IL-1R2 serves as a decoy receptor and competes with IL-1R1 for IL-1, it can also form a complex with IL-1RAP once it binds IL-1. IL-1R2 is implicated in various IL-1-mediated inflammatory diseases[1]. IL-1R2 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, hFc) is a recombinant mouse IL-1R2 protein with an hFc tag at the C-terminus and is expressed in HEK293 cells. It consists of 355 amino acids (M1-E355).

Background

IL-1R2 is the non-signaling type 2 interleukin-1 receptor and is expressed in DC, CD4+ T cells, T regulatory cells, monocytes, neutrophils and different macrophagic cells in mouse. The mouse IL-1R2 can be cleaved into two forms: membrane form (14-410 a.a) and soluble form (14-? a.a).
The sequence of amino acids in IL-1R2 from mouse shows low similarity (about 60%) with human IL-1R2, but has been only slightly altered with rat IL-1R2 (90 % similarity).
IL-1R2 contains truncated cytoplasmic domain and lacks Toll-IL-1 receptor (TIR) region, making it incapable of transmembrane signaling. IL-1R2 serves as an endogenous inhibitor of IL-1 signaling. Functional IL-1 signaling requires IL-1R1 and IL-1-dependent recruitment of IL-1RAP. IL-1R2 serves as a decoy receptor and can compete with IL-1R1 for IL-1. IL-1R2 can also form a complex with IL-1RAP once it binds IL-1, preventing IL-1RAP from heterodimerizing with IL-1R1. Through these 2 ways, IL-1R2 blocks IL-1 signaling. Additionally, soluble IL-1R2 recruits soluble IL-1RAP with high affinity without impacting affinity for IL-1RA.
IL-1R2 inhibits IL-1 signaling and has been implicated in various IL-1-mediated inflammatory diseases like arthritis, diabetes, gout and so on[1][2][3].

In Vitro

IL-1R2 (24 h) specifically inhibits IL-1β-induced urokinase-type plasminogen activator responses in HUVECs[4].

In Vivo

IL-1R2 knockout mice exacerbates cardiac damage in myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and knockout of IL-1R2 induces cytokines expression in the heart after I/R injury[3].
AAV9-IL-1R2 (4 µL; myocardial injection, once) protects heart against IL-17A-induced cardiomyocytes apoptosis through suppressing IL-17RA expression in mice[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
