Human Neurotrophic Tyrosine Kinase Receptor Type 1 (TrkA) ELISA Kit

This Human Neurotrophic Tyrosine Kinase Receptor Type 1 (TrkA) ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of human TrkA in cell culture supernates and cell lysates. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human TrkA ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for TrkA has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (NSO,A33-E407) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for TrkA is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was 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 human TrkA amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from mouse, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Tropomyosin receptor kinase A(TrkA) are efficacious in attenuating skeletal pain.1 TrkA mutants were able to activate signaling cascades and were even more efficient in promoting neurite outgrowth than the wild-type receptor.2 TrkA is part of a sub-family of protein kinases which includes TrkB and TrkC. Also, there are other neurotrophic factors structurally related to NGF: BDNF(for Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor), NT-3(for Neurotrophin-3) and NT-4(for Neurotrophin-4). While TrkA mediates the effects of NGF, TrkB is bound and activated by BDNF, NT-4, and NT-3. Further, TrkC binds and is activated by NT-3.3 TrkA receptor was found in kehumanoconus-affected corneas, along with an increased level of repressor isoform of Sp3 transcription factor.4; Immunogen sequence: 420
