Principle of the assay: human HBEGF ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for HBEGF has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(sf21,D63-L148) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for HBEGF is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human HBEGF amount of sample captured in plate.
Background: HBEGF(Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor), also known as HEGFL or DTR, is a member of the EGF family of proteins that in humans is encoded by the HBEGF gene. The HBEGF gene is assigned to chromosome 5, thus confirming the assignment of the gene on the basis of its role in relation to diphtheria toxin susceptibility. HB-EGF is an 87 amino acid glycoprotein which displays highly regulated gene expression. It has been shown to play a role in wound healing, cardiac hypertrophy and heart development and function. HB-EGF binding and activation of EGF receptors plays a critical role during cardiac valve tissue development and the maintenance of normal heart function in adults.

Uniprot Description

HBEGF: Growth factor that mediates its effects via EGFR, ERBB2 and ERBB4. Required for normal cardiac valve formation and normal heart function. Promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation. May be involved in macrophage-mediated cellular proliferation. It is mitogenic for fibroblasts, but not endothelial cells. It is able to bind EGF receptor/EGFR with higher affinity than EGF itself and is a far more potent mitogen for smooth muscle cells than EGF. Also acts as a diphtheria toxin receptor.
