Abstract：
:Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) is a highly basic and potent cytotoxic single-chain zinc-containing protein present in the granules of the eosinophilic granulocytes. ECP appears to be involved in defence against parasites and in the tissue damage seen in subjects with allergic and inflammatory disease. To investigate ECP release from in vitro activated human eosinophils and to study the involvement of eosinophils in health and disease, we have developed a sensitive and specific enzyme immunoassay. ECP was purified from normal human peripheral blood eosinophils and polyclonal antibodies to ECP were subsequently raised in rabbits. The ELISA utilizes the biotin/avidin method and measures ECP within the range 15-1000 ng/l. The intra- and interassay coefficients of variation were 6% and 10%, respectively, and the recoveries of 12 and 25 pg of purified ECP added to diluted serum samples were 108 +/- 14.5% (mean +/- SD, n = 12) and 107 +/- 7.5%, respectively. The high sensitivity, reproducibility and specificity of this ELISA makes it suitable for the determination of minute amounts of ECP in in vitro systems as well as in various biological fluids.
