IL-17F is a member of the IL-17 cytokine family which consists of at least seven structurally related proteins (IL-17A, B, C, D, E, F, and A/F). IL-17F homodimer adopts a cystine knot motif formed through the interactions of four cysteines, one of which is responsible for inter-chain bonding. IL-17F is most closely related to IL-17A, sharing 50% amino acid sequence homology. IL-17F is expressed in activated Th17 cells, along with IL-17A homodimer and IL-17A/F heterodimer. It is also expressed in activated monocytes. IL-17F has been shown to inhibit endothelial cell angiogenesis and induce increased production of IL-2, TGF-b, and MCP-1, playing a critical role in the regulation of inflammatory reactions.

The BioLegend LEGEND MAX™ ELISA kit is a Sandwich Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) provided with 96-well strip plates that are pre-coated with a capture antibody.

This Mouse IL-17F ELISA kit is specifically designed for the accurate quantitation of mouse IL-17F from cell culture supernatant, serum, and plasma. All kits are analytically validated and provide ready-to-use reagents.
