Principle of the Assay: The Rat Collagen 18 alpha 1 ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Rat Collagen 18 alpha 1 in Cell Culture Supernates, Serum, Plasma. This assay employs an antibody specific for Rat Collagen 18 alpha 1 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Collagen 18 alpha 1 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Rat Collagen 18 alpha 1 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Collagen 18 alpha 1 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
Background: Endostatin is a naturally-occurring 20-kDa C-terminal fragment derived from type XVIII collagen. It is reported to serve as an anti-angiogenic agent, similar to angiostatin and thrombospondin. And It is produced by proteolytic cleavage of collagen XVIII, a member of the multiplexin family that is characterized by interruptions in the triple helix creating multiple domains, by proteases such as cathepsins. Using a genomic clone as a probe for fluorescence in situ hybridization, Endostatin was mapped the COL18A1 gene to 21q22.3. By immunoprecipitation analysis using membrane fractions of human mammary epithelial cells, It showed that endostatin specifically bound to cell surface nucleolin with high affinity. Blockage of nucleolin with neutralizing antibody or knockdown of nucleolin by RNA interference countered the antiendothelial activity of endostatin and abrogated its antiangiogenic and antitumor activity in vivo.

Product Notes
The Rat COL18A1 col18a1 (Catalog #AAA8248474) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA8248474 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat COL18A1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Collagen 18 alpha 1, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
