Abstract
Interleukin17A is a pro-inflammatory cytokine. This protein is produced by a group of T helper cell known as T- helper17 lymphocytes in response to their stimulation with IL-23. After interaction with its receptor, IL-17 activates signalling pathways that stimulate the production of chemokines [1 ].

MATERIALS
IL-17, Interleukin-17 IL-17A, humanBio Basic Inc.Catalog #RC212-28.SIZE.1mg
Set of one 96-well filter plate with 2 plate sealers MilliporeCatalog #MX-PLATE
Ninety-six well ELISA plates are coated with monoclonal anti-human antibodies to interleukin-17( IL-17).
Patient serum samples are added to the plates.
The plate is incubate x 1.30 hour at RT.
The plate is washed 4 times with PBS-tween 20 buffer.
The wells are incubated with a biotin conjugated anti-human IL-17 for 1.30 hour at RT.
The plates are washed again as above.
To the plate a peroxidase-labeled streptavidin conjugate is added and incubated for 1 hour at RT.
After a further washing procedure a substrate solution reactive is added and allowed to produced a colored reaction in positive controls.
The level of IL-17 in the sample is proportional to the colored product developed.
The addition of acid stopped the reaction.
The absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
The IL-17 concentration can be calculated by generating an standard curve.
