Principle of the Assay: This kit was based on sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. Anti-Fibronectin polyclonal antibody was pre-coated onto 96-well plates. And the biotin conjugated anti-Fibronectin polyclonal antibody was used as detection antibodies. The standards, test samples and biotin conjugated detection antibody were added to the wells subsequently, and wash with wash buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with wash buffer. TMB substrates were 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 Fibronectin amount of sample captured in plate. Read the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader, and then the concentration of Fibronectin can be calculated!!Background/Introduction: Fibronectin is a high-molecular weight (~440kDa) glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix, belongs to a family of high molecular weight glycoproteins that are present on cell surfaces, in extracellular fluids, connective tissues, and basement membranes. Two major forms of fibronectin exist: a plasma soluble form and a cellular form. It plays a major role in cell adhesion, growth, migration, and differentiation, and it is important for processes such as wound healing and embryonic development. Fibronectin has been implicated in carcinoma development, and also acts as a potential biomarker for radioresistance.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. This gene product may act as an autocrine negative growth factor that regulates cell proliferation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Galectin-1: May regulate apoptosis, cell proliferation and cell differentiation. Binds beta-galactoside and a wide array of complex carbohydrates. Inhibits CD45 protein phosphatase activity and therefore the dephosphorylation of Lyn kinase. Homodimer. Binds LGALS3BP. Interacts with CD2, CD3, CD4, CD7, CD43 and CD45. Interacts with laminin (via poly-N- acetyllactosamine). Expressed in placenta, maternal decidua and fetal membranes. Within placenta, expressed in trophoblasts, stromal cells, villous endothelium, syncytiotrophoblast apical membrane and villous stroma. Within fetal membranes, expressed in amnion, chorioamniotic mesenchyma and chorion. Expressed in cardiac, smooth, and skeletal muscle, neurons, thymus, kidney and hematopoietic cells.

Product Notes
The Mouse LGALS1 lgals1 (Catalog #AAA494775) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA494775 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse LGALS1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Galectin-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
