Interleukin 5 (IL-5) is pre-dominantly secreted by CD4+ T cells. It is involved in a range of allergic reactions and mediates immune reactions against parasites. IL-5 also acts on other cell types such as B cells.The Anti-IL-5 antibody has been designed for intracellular staining of IL-5–producing cells. Cells can be stimulated for IL-5-production, for example, by polyclonal stimulation with mitogens. For induction of IL-5 production by antigen-specific T cells, cells are restimulated with respective antigen. IL-5 can be accumulated in the cells by addition of secretion inhibitors like brefeld
