Mouse Regulated On Activation In Normal T-Cell Expressed And Secreted (RANTES) ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay
The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to RANTES. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to RANTES. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After the TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain RANTES, biotin-conjugated antibody, and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution, and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of RANTES in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
For Use with serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Target Information
Chemoattractant for blood monocytes, memory T-helper cells and eosinophils. Causes the release of histamine from basophils and activates eosinophils. May activate several chemokine receptors including CCR1, CCR3, CCR4 and CCR5. May also be an agonist of the G protein-coupled receptor GPR75. Together with GPR75, may play a role in neuron survival through activation of a downstream signaling pathway involving the PI3, Akt and MAP kinases. By activating GPR75 may also play a role in insulin secretion by islet cells.

Performance Characteristics
| REPEATABILITY |
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level RANTES were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. |
| SENSITIVITY | The minimum detectable dose was 31pg/mL. |
| ASSAY RANGE | 78.1-5000pg/mL |
| SPECIFICITY | This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of RANTES. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between RANTES and analogs was observed. Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between RANTES and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist. |
