Nori Rat RANKL ELISA Kit
$461.00 – $832.00
DataSheet CoA SDS
This ELISA kit is for quantification of RANKL in rat. This is a quick ELISA assay that reduces time to 50% compared to the conventional method, and the entire assay only takes 3 hours. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique and uses biotin-streptavidin chemistry to improve the performance of the assays. An antibody specific for RANKL has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any RANKL present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, a detection antibody specific for RANKL is added to the wells. Following wash to remove any unbound antibody reagent, a detection reagent is added. After intensive wash a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of RANKL bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped, and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background:
Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) is a protein that is encoded by the TNFSF11 gene.[1] RANKL is known as a type II membrane protein and is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily.[2] RANKL has been identified to affect the immune system and control bone regeneration and remodeling. RANKL may be used as an apoptosis regulator gene, a binding partner of OPG, a ligand for the receptor RANK and control proliferation by modifying protein levels of Id4, Id2 and cyclin D1.[3] RANKL is expressed in several tissues and organs and high protein expression of RANKL are commonly detected in the lung, thymus and lymph nodes.[3] The level of RANKL expression does not linearly correlate to the effect of this ligand., While bone marrow expresses low levels of RANKL, it plays a critical role for adequate bone metabolism, this surface-bound molecule (also known as CD254) found on osteoblasts serves to activate osteoclasts, which are critically involved in bone resorption. Osteoclastic activity is triggered via the osteoblasts’ surface-bound RANKL activating the osteoclasts’ surface-bound receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (RANK). RANKL also has a function in the immune system, where it is expressed by T helper cells and is thought to be involved in dendritic cell maturation. This protein was shown to be a dendritic cell survival factor and is involved in the regulation of T cell-dependent immune response. T cell activation was reported to induce expression of this gene and lead to an increase of osteoclastogenesis and bone loss. This protein was shown to activate antiapoptotic kinase AKT/PKB through a signaling complex involving SRC kinase and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), which indicated this protein may have a role in the regulation of cell apoptosis.
