Human Immunoglobulin Alpha Fc Receptor (FCAR) ELISA Kit

Human Immunoglobulin Alpha Fc Receptor (FCAR) ELISA Kit

This ELISA kit is designed to detect Human Immunoglobulin Alpha Fc Receptor (Human FCAR). The assay plate has been pre-coated with mouse anti-Human CD89 monoclonal antibody. When the sample containing CD89 is added to the plate, it binds to the antibodies coated on the wells. Then, a horseradish peroxidase conjugated mouse anti-Human CD89 Antibody is added to the wells and binds to CD89 in the sample. After washing the wells, substrate solutions are added, and the color intensity is directly proportional to the amount of Human CD89 present. The reaction is stopped by adding an acidic stop solution, and the absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Research Areas Immunology
Background FCAR, also called FcαRI or CD89, is a type I transmembrane receptor for Fc region of IgA which is the most abundant immunoglobulin in mucosal areas but is only the second most common antibody isotype in serum. This receptor is present on the surface of myeloid lineage cells such as neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages, and eosinophils, especially phagocytes located in mucosal areas. Upon ligand IgA binding, FcαRI associates with the FcR γ signaling molecule bearing the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) through a unique charge-based mechanism and triggers multiple cell-mediated immune responses. It has been reported that Fc RI is a dual-function receptor that can mediate both inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses depending on the type of interaction with its ligand. Sustained aggregation of FCAR results in activation of target-cell functions such as antigen presentation and cytokine release. In contrast, Monomeric targeting with serum IgA or with a variety of anti-FcαRI Fab fragments triggers an inhibitory response and additionally induces apoptosis. FcαRI thus play an fundamental role in preventing tumor development and growth, as well as in controlling inflammation.
