Product DescriptiongoogleThe mouse Clusterin (Apolipoprotein J, ApoJ). The capture antibody is a monoclonal Clusterin antibody pre-coated onto the 96-well strip plates provided in the kit. Mouse test samples and standards of known Clusterin concentration are added to these wells and allowed to complex with the bound Clusterin antibody. A biotinylated Clusterin monoclonal antibody is added. This detection antibody binds to the antigen thus completing the sandwich. After washing, an enzyme Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase (ABC) is added which binds to the second antibody. The peroxidase substrate TMB is added to induce a coloured reaction product. The intensity of this coloured product is directly proportional to the concentration of Clusterin present in the samples. The purpose of this kit is the in-vitro quantitaive determination of mouse Clusterin in samples such as cell culture supernatant, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). This ELISA kit has not been tested for other applications. This kit has been configured for research use only and is not to be used in diagnostic or clinical procedures.
SpecificityThis mouse Clusterin ELISA assay is reactive to clusterin in mouse samples. There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins
Species ReactivityMouse
Immunogen DescriptionExpression system for standard: NS0; Immunogen sequence: D22-R226 (β) & S227-E448 (α)

Scientific BackgroundClusterin (apolipoprotein J) is a 75 - 80 kDa disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein associated with the clearance of cellular debris and apoptosis. In humans, clusterin is encoded by the CLU gene.This protein has several synonyms: dimeric acidic glycoprotein (DAG protein), testosterone repressed prostate message-2 (TRPM-2), sulfated glycoprotein-2 (SGP-2) and complement lysis inhibitor (CLI). Clusterin was mapped to mouse chromosome 14. Clusterin is a ubiquitously expressed molecule thought to influence a variety of processes including cell death. In the brain, it accumulates in dying neurons following seizures and hypoxic-ischemic (H-I) injury. clusterin may be a new therapeutic target to modulate non- caspase-dependent neuronal death following acute brain injury.
