Mouse BDNF(Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor) ELISA Kit

Important signaling molecule that activates signaling cascades downstream of NTRK2 (PubMed:27457814). During development, promotes the survival and differentiation of selected neuronal populations of the peripheral and central nervous systems. Participates in axonal growth, pathfinding and in the modulation of dendritic growth and morphology. Major regulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity at adult synapses in many regions of the CNS. The versatility of BDNF is emphasized by its contribution to a range of adaptive neuronal responses including long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD), certain forms of short-term synaptic plasticity, as well as homeostatic regulation of intrinsic neuronal excitability (PubMed:15486301, PubMed:17023662, PubMed:27457814, PubMed:29909994, PubMed:8139657) , Important signaling molecule that activates signaling cascades downstream of NTRK2 (PubMed:27457814). Activates signaling cascades via the heterodimeric receptor formed by NGFR and SORCS2 (PubMed:24908487, PubMed:29909994). Signaling via NGFR and SORCS2 plays a role in synaptic plasticity and long-term depression (LTD) (PubMed:27457814). Binding to NGFR and SORCS2 promotes neuronal apoptosis (PubMed:24908487). Promotes neuronal growth cone collapse (PubMed:24908487, PubMed:27457814) Assay Type: Sandwich. Sensitivity: 0.051 ng/mL. Standard: 10 ng/mL. Detection range: 0.16-10 ng/mL. Sample type: serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Assay length: 3.5h. Research Field: Cytokine,Infection immunity,Neuro science,. Test principle: The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Mouse BDNF. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Mouse BDNF. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Mouse BDNF, 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 Mouse BDNF in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
