Mouse IL-17A ELISA kits

Pick the right ELISA kit for Mouse IL-17A. Our kits differ in how you develop the signal – this page explains what those differences mean.

IL-17A ELISA kits are also available for bovine, goat, human, monkey, porcine, and sheep.

What differs between these kits

Which detection system

Available with Streptavidin-ALP or Streptavidin-HRP. You add the streptavidin conjugate as a second incubation after the biotinylated antibody, which amplifies the signal. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) perform equivalently, so that choice usually comes down to the substrate and reader you already work with.

About IL-17A

These Mouse IL-17A ELISA kits target Il17a (Mus musculus, Gene ID 16171).

Interleukin 17A (IL-17A) is a potent proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated Th17 (T helper 17) cells and certain cells belonging to the innate immune system. In mice, IL-17 has also been shown to be produced by activated CD8 T cells and γδ T cells. Th17 cells play an important role in autoimmune diseases and protection against bacteria and fungi. IL-17A acts on a broad range of cell types to induce the expression of cytokines, chemokines, and metalloproteinases. As a result, secretion of IL-17A promotes inflammatory responses, which leads to the recruitment of neutrophils, enhancement of antibody production, and activation of T cells. Increased expression of IL-17A is seen in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is also associated with asthma, psoriasis, cancer, and transplant rejection.

ELISA kit with HRP or ALP – what to choose?

You are interested in one of our ELISA Flex kits but wondering whether to choose the kit based on ALP or HRP? It’s a matter of taste, but we'd say HRP is mainly used for the colorimetric reaction. Find out why.
