Background
Interleukin 13 (IL-13) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL13 gene. The secondary structural features of IL-13 are similar to that of Interleukin 4 (IL-4); however it only has 25% sequence identity to IL-4 and is capable of IL-4 independent signaling. IL-13 is a cytokine secreted by T helper type 2 (Th2) cells, CD4 cells, natural killer T cell, mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and nuocytes. Interleukin-13 is a central regulator in IgE synthesis, goblet cell hyperplasia, mucus hypersecretion, airway hyperresponsiveness, fibrosis and chitinase up-regulation. It is a mediator of allergic inflammation and different diseases including asthma.

Linearity
The concentrations of Mouse IL-13 were measured and interpolated from the target standard curves and corrected for sample dilution.
The sample is undiluted samples are as follows: EL-4 cells stimulated with 10ug/ml PHA and 10ug/ml PMA for 2days (20%). The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted. The mean target concentration was determined to be 5348.63 pg/mL in stimulated EL-4 cells supernatant.
To assess the linearity of the assay, the samples was spiked with high concentrations of Mouse IL-13 in various matrices and diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.
