Human APRIL Pre-Coated ELISA Kit Détails du Produit Catalog Number: BGK2QBA2 Description: APRIL, a member of the TNF superfamily, is expressed in monocytes, macrophages, certain transformed cell lines, certain cancers of the colon, and lymphoid tissues. APRIL, along with another TNF family member, BAFF, competes for two receptors, TACI and BCMA. APRIL has the ability to stimulate proliferation of various tumor cell lines, including Jurkat T cells and MCF-7 carcinoma cells. Like BAFF, APRIL also stimulates the proliferation of B and T cells. The human APRIL gene codes for at least four alternatively spliced transcriptional variants, which give rise to different isoforms of the APRIL precursor protein. All isoforms can be cleaved by the protease, furin, to release a soluble C-terminal fragment, which comprises the TNF-like receptor binding of the APRIL precursor. The BioGems Human APRIL Pre-Coated ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is a solid phase immunoassay specially designed to measure APRIL with a 96-well strip plate that is pre-coated with mouse monoclonal antibody specific for APRIL. It contains NS0-expressed recombinant APRIL. The detection antibody is a biotinylated goat polyclonal antibody specific for APRIL. The kit is analytically validated with ready to use reagents.
