Interleukin 32 (IL-32), previously known as a transcript (NK4), is produced by mitogen-activated lymphocytes, by IFNγ-activated epithelial cells or by IL-12 and IL-18-activated NK cells. Its expression is increased following activation of T-cells by mitogens or the activation of NK cells by IL-2. IL-32 activates NF-κB and p38 MAPK cytokine signal pathways. It has been suggested that IL-32 may play a role in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. IL-32 is unusual in that it does not share sequence homology with known cytokine families and is highly expressed in immune tissues. IL-32 exists in at least four differentially spliced isoforms (α, β, γ and δ) with predicted molecular weight: ~26 kD. IL-32α is the shortest and most abundant of four potential splice variants of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-32. Potential modifications include myristoylation and N-glycosylation. Transfected IL-32α was more likely to be cell-associated as compared to IL-32β, suggesting an intracellular function.

ELISA Capture - Quality tested
- Recommended Usage
-
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by ELISA assay. For use as an ELISA capture antibody, a concentration range of 1-4 µg/ml is recommended. To obtain a linear standard curve, serial dilutions of human IL-32 recombinant protein ranging from 500 to 7.8 pg/ml are recommended for each ELISA plate. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
- Application Notes
-
ELISA Capture1: The purified KU32-07 antibody is useful as the capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA assay, when used in conjunction with the biotinylated KU32-52 antibody (Cat. No. 513503) as the detecting antibody.
Note: For testing human IL-32a in serum, plasma or supernatant, BioLegend's ELISA Max™ Sets (Cat. No. 433504 & 433505) are specially developed and recommended. -

Antigen Details
- Structure
- IL-32 contains a tyrosine sulfation site, 3 potential N-myristoylation sites, multiple putative phosphorylation sites, and an RGD cell-attachment sequence.
- Distribution
-
Expression increased after activation of T-cells by mitogens or activation of NK cells by IL-2.
- Function
- IL-32 is a proinflammatory cytokine associated with viral and bacterial infections. IL-32 is involved in autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn disease. IL-32 induces the production of TNF-a from macrophage cells.
