Background

IL-11 Ra (Interleukin-11 receptor alpha) is a widely expressed transmembrane protein that associates with gp130 to form a functional receptor complex for the cytokine IL-11. gp130 also functions as a subunit in the receptors for Cardiotrophin-1, CNTF, IL-6, IL-27, IL-31, LIF, and Oncostatin M. IL-11 Ra plays a role in female reproduction and the survival of oligodendrocytes and colonic epithelial cells. It enhances osteoclast differentiation and bone remodeling but inhibits adipocyte differentiation. Soluble IL-11 Ra confers IL-11 responsiveness to cells expressing gp130, while in cells expressing transmembrane IL-11 Ra and gp130, soluble IL-11 Ra acts as an IL-11 antagonist.

1. What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
   • Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
