Mouse SLPI (Secretory Leukocyte Peptidase Inhibitor) ELISA Kit

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 SLPI. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Mouse SLPI. 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 SLPI, 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 SLPI in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve. Protein Function: Acid-stable proteinase inhibitor with strong affinities for trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, and cathepsin G (PubMed:9126337). Modulates the innate immune response after bacterial infection (PubMed:12615907). Contributes to regulate the inflammatory and immune responses to the intracellular parasite L.major (PubMed:25030421). Down-regulates responses to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (PubMed:12615907, PubMed:25030421, PubMed:9039268). Plays a role in regulating the activation of NF-kappa-B and inflammatory responses (PubMed:11017147, PubMed:12615907). Has antimicrobial activity against mycobacteria, but not against salmonella (PubMed:18322212). Contributes to normal resistance against infection by M.tuberculosis (PubMed:18322212). Required for normal resistance to L.major (PubMed:25030421). Required for normal wound healing, probably by preventing tissue damage by limiting protease activity (PubMed:11017147, PubMed:25030421). Together with ELANE, required for normal differentiation and proliferation of bone marrow myeloid cells (By similarity) [The Uniprot Consortium]
