Human Wap Four-Disulfide Core Domain Protein 2 (WFDC2) ELISA Kit

Human Wap Four-Disulfide Core Domain Protein 2 (WFDC2) ELISA Kit

This ELISA kit is designed to detect Human Wap Four-Disulfide Core Domain Protein 2 (Human WFDC2). The assay plate has been pre-coated with mouse anti-Human HE4 monoclonal antibody. When the sample containing HE4 is added to the plate, it binds to the antibodies coated on the wells. Then, a horseradish peroxidase conjugated mouse anti-Human HE4 Antibody is added to the wells and binds to HE4 in the sample. After washing the wells, substrate solutions are added, and the color intensity is directly proportional to the amount of Human HE4 present. The reaction is stopped by adding an acidic stop solution, and the absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background WAP four-disulfide core domain protein 2, also known as Epididymal secretory protein E4, Major epididymis-specific protein E4, Putative protease inhibitor WAP5, WFDC2 and HE4, is a secreted protein that contains two WAP domains. WFDC2 / HE4 is a member of a family of stable 4-disulfide core proteins that are secreted at high levels. It is expressed in a number of normal tissues, including male reproductive system, regions of the respiratory tract and nasopharynx. It is highly expressed in a number of tumors cells lines, such ovarian, colon, breast, lung and renal cells lines. Initially described as being exclusively transcribed in the epididymis. WFDC2 may be a component of the innate immune defences of the lung, nasal and oral cavities and suggest that WFDC2 functions in concert with related WAP domain containing proteins in epithelial host defence. WFDC2 re-expression in lung carcinomas may prove to be associated with tumour type and should be studied in further detail. Mammary gland expression of tammar WFDC2 during the course of lactation showed WFDC2 was elevated during pregnancy, reduced in early lactation and absent in mid-late lactation. WFDC2 / HE4 can undergo a complex series of alternative splicing events that can potentially yield five distinct WAP domain containing protein isoforms.
