Sandwich ELISA quantitative detection kit for Mouse E-Selectin in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, citrate).
E-selectin, also called endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (ELAM-1), is a cell surface glycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium that mediates the adhesion of blood neutrophils.1 An increased expression of E-selectin has been observed in the arterial endothelium interacting with lymphocytes and macrophages in human atherosclerotic lesions.2 E-selectin plays a critical role in mediating tissue-specific homing of T cells into skin, and of primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) into bone marrow (BM).3 A structurally and functionally related group of genes, lymph node homing receptor (LHR), granule membrane protein 140 (GMP-140), and endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule 1 (ELAM-1) are shown to constitute a gene cluster on mouse and human chromosome 1.4 The standard product used in this kit is recombinant mouse E-Selectin, excluding intercellular E-Selectin and transmembrane domain. It consists of totally 557 amino acids with the molecular mass of 85.8kD.
