Mouse LOX-1/OLR1 PicoKine ELISA Kit
Background: Oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (Ox-LDL receptor 1) also known as lectin-type oxidized LDL receptor 1 (LOX-1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OLR1 gene. It belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily. The LOX1 gene is mapped to to 12p13-p12. The protein has got the amino acids of 363. It can be detected in various tissues, highly expressed in placenta. This protein may be involved in the regulation of Fas-induced apoptosis and play a role as a scavenger receptor. The standards of this kit are recombinant mouse LOX-1 (R60-I363), with molecular weight of 36.3kDa.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
Receptor that mediates the recognition, internalization and degradation of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) by vascular endothelial cells. OxLDL is a marker of atherosclerosis that induces vascular endothelial cell activation and dysfunction, resulting in pro-inflammatory responses, pro-oxidative conditions and apoptosis. Its association with oxLDL induces the activation of NF-kappa-B through an increased production of intracellular reactive oxygen and a variety of pro-atherogenic cellular responses including a reduction of nitric oxide (NO) release, monocyte adhesion and apoptosis. In addition to binding oxLDL, it acts as a receptor for the HSP70 protein involved in antigen cross-presentation to naive T-cells in dendritic cells, thereby participating in cell-mediated antigen cross-presentation. Also involved in inflammatory process, by acting as a leukocyte-adhesion molecule at the vascular interface in endotoxin-induced inflammation. Also acts as a receptor for advanced glycation end (AGE) products, activated platelets, monocytes, apoptotic cells and both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria ().

Product Notes
The Mouse OLR1 olr1 (Catalog #AAA175926) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA175926 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse OLR1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "LOX-1/OLR1, 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
