ELISA Kits

The biosensis Multi-Neurotrophin <em>Rapid</em>^TM Screening ELISA kit has been designed to allow rapid screening and quantification of rat NGF, BDNF, NT3 and NT4/5 in cell culture supernatants, lysates, serum and brain extracts only if used as directed. Please refer to the kit protocol for specific use instructions for each substrate application, in particular rat serum. <br /><br />This two-plate kit consists of four sets of 6 strips for each Neurotrophin, allowing for the assay of 16 samples per Neurotrophin tested and a full range of standards, all run in duplicate. It provides the identical sensitivities and ranges that are achieved in the complete, individual ELISA kits, thus allowing easy progression into the larger individual assay sizes when needed. The Multi-Neurotrophin <em>Rapid</em>^TM Screening ELISA kit therefore presents a cost effective way to quickly screen multiple samples, which can then be published or used prior to a more extensive analysis wit

The NF-kB/Rel family of transcription factors is comprised of several structurally related proteins that form homodimers and heterodimers and include p50/p105, p52/p100, RelA (p65), c-Rel/NF-kB [1]. Members of this family are responsible for regulating over 150 target genes, including the expression of inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, immunoreceptors and cell adhesion molecules. Because of this, NF-kB has often been called a ‘central mediator of the human immune response' [2]. Acting as dimers, these transcription factors bind to DNA sequences, collectively called kB, sites thereby regulating expression of target genes. In most cells, Rel/ NF-kB transcription complexes are present in an inactive form in the cytoplasm, bound to an inhibitor IkB. Certain stimuli result in the phosphorylation, ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of IkB proteins thereby enabling translocation of NF-kB into the nucleus [3]. The most common Rel/NF-kB dimer in mammals contains p50-RelA (p50/p65)

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most abundant protein in the serum which accounts for 75% of the total immunoglobulins in the plasma of healthy individuals. IgG is a major effector molecule of the humoral immune response in humans and provides defense against parasitic invasion. IgG molecules (Fc portion) react with Fc-gamma receptors that are present on the surfaces of macrophages, neutrophils, natural killer cells, and can activate the complement system. IgG is produced in a delayed response to an infection and can be retained in the body for a long time. IgG is the major class of the five classes of immunoglobulins (IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE) in human beings. These closely related glycoproteins, composed of 82–96% protein and 4–18% carbohydrate, differ in heavy chain structure and have unique profile with respect to antigen binding, immune complex formation, complement activation, triggering of effector cells and placental transport. IgG can be further divided into four subclasses,
