Rat GAL3 (Galectin 3) ELISA Kit

The kit is a Sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of GAL3 in serum, plasma and other biological fluids. Detection Range: 31.25--2000pg/mL. Sensitivity: 18.75pg/mL. Protein function: Galactose-specific lectin which binds IgE. May mediate with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. In the nucleus: acts as a pre-mRNA splicing factor. Involved in acute inflammatory responses including neutrophil activation and adhesion, chemoattraction of monocytes macrophages, opsonization of apoptotic neutrophils, and activation of mast cells. Together with DMBT1, required for terminal differentiation of columnar epithelial cells during early embryogenesis. [The UniProt Consortium]
