Background

Rat IL-2 (Interleukin-2) is a 15–17 kDa glycoprotein and key T-cell growth factor primarily secreted by activated CD4+ T cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells. It drives T-cell proliferation, Th1 differentiation, and NK cell activity while also supporting regulatory T cell (Treg) function for immune tolerance. Signaling through the IL-2 receptor (IL-2Rαβγ) activates JAK-STAT pathways, promoting cell survival and expansion. Rat IL-2 shares ~70% homology with mouse IL-2 but differs significantly from humanIL-2, requiring species-specific detection methods (e.g., ELISA, flow cytometry). It is crucial in research on autoimmunity (e.g., EAE), transplantation, and cancer immunotherapy, with dysregulation linked to immune disorders. Recombinant IL-2 has therapeutic potential but demands rat-specific reagents for accurate study.

Linearity
Linearity
The concentrations of Rat IL-2 were measured and interpolated from the target standard curves and corrected for sample dilution.
The sample is undiluted samples are as follows: SHR Rat serum (50%). The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted. The mean target concentration was determined to be 239.11 pg/mL in SHR Rat serum.

S#1 sample is undiluted samples are as follows: Lewis Rat serum (50%). The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted. The mean target concentration was determined to be 191.36 pg/mL in Lewis Rat serum.
P#1 sample is undiluted samples are as follows: Lewis Rat plasma-Heparin (50%). The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted. The mean target concentration was determined to be 274.08 pg/mL in Lewis Rat plasma-Heparin.
