Rabbit Lipocalin 2 ELISA Kit | LCN2 elisa kit

Rabbit Lipocalin 2 ELISA Kit

Cat. Num. AAA17878

• Reactivity: Rabbit
• Synonyms: Lipocalin 2; Rabbit Lipocalin 2 ELISA Kit; LCN2 elisa kit

• Reactivity: Rabbit
• Specificity: No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Rabbit LCN2 and analogues was observed.

• Samples: Serum, Plasma, Tissue Homogenate, Feces, Urine and Body Fluids
• Assay Type: Sandwich
• Detection Range: 15.6 ng/ml - 500 ng/ml.
• Sensitivity: 2.0 ng/ml.
• Intended Uses: ELISA is a simple and highly sensitive method of analysis that allows for simultaneous and rapid quantification of a large number of samples. The assay is based on the specific recognition of the target compound (analyte/antigen) by antibodies which bind to the compound. The antigen-antibody complex is detected and measured with the aid of an enzyme-labeled antibody or antigen. Upon addition of a non-colored reagent, the enzyme produces a color reaction where the color intensity is directly or inversely proportional to the concentration of the analyte in the sample. This quantitative Sandwich ELISA kit is in tended to determinate LCN2 concentrations in Rabbit serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, feces, urine and body fluids, and it is only for research, not for drug, household, therapeutic applications
• Intra-assay Precision: Intra-assay CV (%) are less than 15%.
• Inter-assay Precision: Inter-assay CV (%) is less than 15%. [CV(%) = SD/mean x100]
• Preparation and Storage: Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C

Uniprot Description

LCN2: Iron-trafficking protein involved in multiple processes such as apoptosis, innate immunity and renal development. Binds iron through association with 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,5- DHBA), a siderophore that shares structural similarities with bacterial enterobactin, and delivers or removes iron from the cell, depending on the context. Iron-bound form (holo-24p3) is internalized following binding to the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor, leading to release of iron and subsequent increase of intracellular iron concentration. In contrast, association of the iron-free form (apo-24p3) with the SLC22A17 (24p3R) receptor is followed by association with an intracellular siderophore, iron chelation and iron transfer to the extracellular medium, thereby reducing intracellular iron concentration. Involved in apoptosis due to interleukin-3 (IL3) deprivation: iron-loaded form increases intracellular iron concentration without promoting apoptosis, while iron-free form decreases intracellular iron levels, inducing expression of the proapoptotic protein BCL2L11/BIM, resulting in apoptosis. Involved in innate immunity, possibly by sequestrating iron, leading to limit bacterial growth. Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
