Rat MAS1(Proto-oncogene Mas) ELISA Kit

Receptor for angiotensin 1-7 (By similarity). Acts specifically as a functional antagonist of AGTR1 (angiotensin-2 type 1 receptor), although it up-regulates AGTR1 receptor levels. Positive regulation of AGTR1 levels occurs through activation of the G-proteins GNA11 and GNAQ, and stimulation of the protein kinase C signaling cascade. The antagonist effect on AGTR1 function is probably due to AGTR1 being physically altered by MAS1 (By similarity) Assay Type: Sandwich. Sensitivity: 0.049 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,Tumor immunity,Infection immunity,. 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 Rat MAS1. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Rat MAS1. 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 Rat MAS1, 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 Rat MAS1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
