Human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (SELPLG) ELISA Kit

SELPLG is the high affinity counter-receptor for P-selectin on myeloid cells and stimulated T lymphocytes. As such, it plays a critical role in the tethering of these cells to activated platelets or endothelia expressing P-selectin. The organization of the SELPG gene closely resembles that of CD43 and the human platelet glycoprotein GpIb-alpha both of which have an intron in the 5-prime-noncoding region, a long second exon containing the complete coding region, and TATA-less promoters. P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 is a glycoprotein found on white blood cells and endothelial cells that binds to P-selectin (P stands for platelet) . It is one of a family of selectins that includes E-selectin (endothelial) and L-selectin (leukocyte) . PSGL-1 can bind to all three members of the family but binds best (with the highest affinity) to P-selectin.

Human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (SELPLG) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human SELPLG. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human SELPLG and analogues was observed.

This Human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (SELPLG) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SELPLG in samples. An antibody specific for SELPLG has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySELPLG present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SELPLG is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SELPLG bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

• Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
