Interleukin-1 Receptor Type 2 (IL-1RII) ins a non-signaling receptor for IL1A, IL1B and IL1RN and reduces IL1B activities. It serves as a decoy receptor by competitive binding to IL1B and preventing its binding to IL1R1. It also modulates cellular response through non-signaling association with IL1RAP after binding to IL1B. IL1R2 (membrane and secreted forms) preferentially binds IL1B and poorly IL1A and IL1RN. The secreted IL1R2 recruits secreted IL1RAP with high affinity; this complex formation may be the dominant mechanism for neutralization of IL1B by secreted/soluble receptors.
This antiserum against Human IL-1 Receptor Type II (IL-1RII) has been tested for use in ELISA, radioimmunoassays and immunoprecipitation. Reactivity in other immunoassays is unknown. IL-1RII has been termed p68 or CD121 in some laboratories. IL-1RII has been shown to bind IL-1, IL-1a and IL-1b.
