About This Kit
The Rat RAGE (AGER) ELISA quantitates Rt RAGE in rat serum, plasma, or cell culture medium. The assay will exclusively recognize both natural and recombinant Rt RAGE.
Principle of the method
The Rat RAGE solid-phase sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is designed to measure the amount of the target bound between a matched antibody pair. A target-specific antibody has been pre-coated in the wells of the supplied microplate. Samples, standards, or controls are then added into these wells and bind to the immobilized (capture) antibody. The sandwich is formed by the addition of the second (detector) antibody, a substrate solution is added that reacts with the enzyme-antibody-target complex to produce measurable signal. The intensity of this signal is directly proportional to the concentration of target present in the original specimen.
Rigorous validation
Each manufactured lot of this ELISA kit is quality tested for criteria such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, and lot-to-lot consistency. See manual for more information on validation.
Target information
The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products (RAGE) is a gene located on human chromosome 6p21.3, encoding a transmembrane receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. RAGE is expressed in various tissues, with significant levels in the lungs, and plays a crucial role in cellular signaling and inflammation. As a receptor, RAGE binds multiple ligands, including advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), amyloid-β peptide, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), and S100/calgranulin proteins, facilitating diverse pathological processes like inflammation, cancer progression, and neurodegeneration. The interaction between RAGE and its ligands triggers intracellular signaling pathways such as NF-B activation, leading to inflammatory responses and oxidative stress. In the context of chronic diseases like diabetes, Alzheimer's, and cardiovascular diseases, RAGE is a critical mediator, linking metabolic disturbance to cellular dysfunction. Therapeutic targeting of RAGE signaling is under investigation, aiming to mitigate its contribution to inflammatory and degenerative diseases.
