• Assay Type: Competitive Inhibition
• Samples: Serum, Plasma or Other Biological Fluids.
• Detection Range: 15.6-1000pg/mL
• Sensitivity: 4.24pg/mL
• RTU ELISA Kit's Advantage: The Ready-To-Use (RTU) Kits require fewer steps in setup and take less time to run. Detection Solutions are pre-diluted and total incubation time is shorter than many other ELISA Kits.
• Preparation and Storage: For unopened kits: All the reagents should be kept at 4 degree C upon receipt.; For opened kits: Once the kit is opened, the remaining reagents still need to be stored according to the above storage conditions. In addition, return the unused wells to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack and reseal along entire edge of zip-seal.

Test Principle: This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. A monoclonal antibody specific to CRH has been pre-coated onto a microplate. A competitive inhibition reaction is launched between biotin labeled CRH and unlabeled CRH (Standards or samples) with the pre-coated antibody specific to CRH. After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. The amount of bound HRP conjugate is reverse proportional to the concentration of CRH in the sample. After addition of the substrate solution, the intensity of color developed is reverse proportional to the concentration of CRH in the sample.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the corticotropin-releasing factor family. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature neuropeptide hormone. In response to stress, this hormone is secreted by the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus, binds to corticotropin releasing hormone receptors and stimulates the release of adrenocorticotropic hormone from the pituitary gland. Marked reduction in this protein has been observed in association with Alzheimer's disease. Autosomal recessive hypothalamic corticotropin deficiency has multiple and potentially fatal metabolic consequences including hypoglycemia and hepatitis. In addition to production in the hypothalamus, this protein is also synthesized in peripheral tissues, such as T lymphocytes, and is highly expressed in the placenta. In the placenta it is a marker that determines the length of gestation and the timing of parturition and delivery. A rapid increase in circulating levels of the hormone occurs at the onset of parturition, suggesting that, in addition to its metabolic functions, this protein may act as a trigger for parturition.
