Human Corin ELISA Kit

Sample Types: serum, plasma, cell culture supernates, tissue homogenates Detection Range: 0.625 ng/mL-40 ng/mL Sensitivity: 0.156 ng/mL Assay Principle: quantitative Measurement: SandwichAssay Time: 1-5h Sample Volume: 50-100ulDetection Wavelength: 450 nmProtein function: Serine-type endopeptidase involved in atrial natriuretic peptide (NPPA) and brain natriuretic peptide (NPPB) processing (PubMed:10880574, PubMed:21288900, PubMed:20489134, PubMed:21763278). Converts through proteolytic cleavage the non-functional propeptides NPPA and NPPB into their active hormones, ANP and BNP(1-32) respectively, thereby regulating blood pressure in the heart and promoting natriuresis, diuresis and vasodilation (PubMed:10880574, PubMed:21288900, PubMed:20489134, PubMed:21763278). Proteolytic cleavage of pro-NPPA also plays a role in female pregnancy by promoting trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling in uterus (PubMed:22437503). Also acts as a regulator of sodium reabsorption in kidney. [The UniProt Consortium]
