Human Forkhead box protein F1, FOXF1 ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors which is characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined; however, it may play a role in the regulation of pulmonary genes as well as embryonic development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
FOXF1: Probable transcription activator for a number of lung- specific genes. Defects in FOXF1 are the cause of alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV). ACDMPV is a rare malformation due to abnormal development of the capillary vascular system in the lungs. Histologically, it is characterized by failure of formation and ingrowth of alveolar capillaries, medial muscular thickening of small pulmonary arterioles with muscularization of the intraacinar arterioles, thickened alveolar walls, and anomalously situated pulmonary veins running alongside pulmonary arterioles and sharing the same adventitial sheath. Less common features include a reduced number of alveoli and a patchy distribution of the histopathologic changes. Affected infants present with respiratory distress and the disease is fatal within the newborn period. Additional features include multiple congenital anomalies affecting the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal systems, as well as disruption of the normal right-left asymmetry of intrathoracic or intraabdominal organs. ACDMPV is a rare cause of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, an abnormal physiologic state caused by failure of transition of the pulmonary circulation from the high pulmonary vascular resistance of the fetus to the low pulmonary vascular resistance of the newborn.

Product Notes
The Human FOXF1 foxf1 (Catalog #AAA9332765) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9332765 ELISA Kit recognizes Human FOXF1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "forkhead box F1, 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
