Principle of the Assay: This kit was based on sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. Anti-uPAR polyclonal antibody was pre-coated onto 96-well plates. And the biotin conjugated anti-uPAR 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 uPAR amount of sample captured in plate. Read the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader, and then the concentration of uPAR can be calculated!!Background/Introduction: The Urokinase receptor, also known as uPA receptor or uPAR or CD87 (Cluster of Differentiation 87), is multidomain glycoprotein tethered to the cell membrane with a glycosylphosphotidylinositol (GPI) anchor. uPAR was originally identified as a saturable binding site for urokinase on the cell surface. It consists of three different domains of the Ly-6/uPAR/ alpha-neurotoxin family. All three domains are necessary for high affinity binding of the primary ligand, urokinase. uPAR is a part of the plasminogen activation system, which in the healthy body is involved in tissue reorganization events such as mammary gland involution and wound healing. It is a key molecule in the regulation of cell-surface plasminogen activation, and plays an important role in many normal as well as pathologic processes.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the Ig superfamily and encodes a cell surface sialoglycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium. This type I membrane protein mediates leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion and signal transduction, and may play a role in the development of artherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Three alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
Uniprot Description
VCAM1: Important in cell-cell recognition. Appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Interacts with the beta-1 integrin VLA4 on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction. The VCAM1/VLA4 interaction may play a pathophysiologic role both in immune responses and in leukocyte emigration to sites of inflammation. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Mouse VCAM-1 vcam1 (Catalog #AAA494831) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA494831 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse VCAM-1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "VCAM-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
