Mouse Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A (SFTPA1) ELISA Kit | SFTPA1 elisa kit
Mouse Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A (SFTPA1) ELISA Kit
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Background: SP-A (PRL) is a peptide hormone primarily associated with lactation. In breastfeeding, the infant suckling the teat stimulates the production of SP-A, which fills the breast with milk (lactogenesis) in preparation for the next feed. Oxytocin, a similar hormone, is also released, which triggers milk let-down. SP-A (PRL) is a polypeptide hormone secreted by anterior pituitary of both male and female. Release of SP-A is controlled by a complex neuroendocrine reflex initiated by a tactile stimulus and regulated by hypothalamic releasing and inhibition. Genetic variations in SFTPA1 are associated with respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants (RDS); also known as RDS in prematurity. RDS in the newborn is the main cause of mortality and morbidity in premature infants.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
SFTPA2: In presence of calcium ions, it binds to surfactant phospholipids and contributes to lower the surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the alveoli of the mammalian lung and is essential for normal respiration. Defects in SFTPA2 are a cause of pulmonary fibrosis idiopathic (IPF). Pulmonary fibrosis is a lung disease characterized by shortness of breath, radiographically evident diffuse pulmonary infiltrates, and varying degrees of inflammation and fibrosis on biopsy. It results in acute lung injury with subsequent scarring and endstage lung disease. Belongs to the SFTPA family.
Protein type: Secreted, signal peptide; Secreted
Cellular Component: multivesicular body; extracellular space; rough endoplasmic reticulum; cytoplasmic vesicle

Product Notes
The Mouse SFTPA1 sftpa1 (Catalog #AAA9718029) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9718029 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse SFTPA1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A (SFTPA1), 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
