The Human Angiopoietin 1 (Hu APO1) ELISA quantitates Hu APO1 in human serum, plasma, or cell culture medium. The assay will exclusively recognize both natural and recombinant Hu APO1. Principle of the method The Human APO1 solid-phase sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is designed to measure the amount of the target bound between a matched antibody pair. A target-specific antibody has been pre-coated in the wells of the supplied microplate. Samples, standards, or controls are then added into these wells and bind to the immobilized (capture) antibody. The sandwich is formed by the addition of the second (detector) antibody, a substrate solution is added that reacts with the enzyme-antibody-target complex to produce measurable signal. The intensity of this signal is directly proportional to the concentration of target present in the original specimen. Rigorous validation Each manufactured lot of this ELISA kit is quality tested for criteria such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, and lot-to-lot consistency. See manual for more information on validation.Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) is a secreted ligand for Tie-2. Preliminary biochemical analyses of Ang-1 reveal a potential Fibrinogen-like domain at the carboxy-terminus and coiled-coil regions in the amino-terminus. Ang-1 is an angiogenic factor that is thought to be involved in endothelial development. A related protein, angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), has been identified as a naturally occurring antagonist of Ang-1 activation of Tie-2. In adult tissue, Ang-2 expression seems to be restricted to sites of vascular remodeling.
