Human Cadherin-5 (CDH5) ELISA Kit

Human Cadherin-5 (CDH5) ELISA Kit

This ELISA kit is designed to detect Human Cadherin-5 (Human CDH5). The assay plate has been pre-coated with mouse anti-Human VE-Cadherin monoclonal antibody. When the sample containing VE-Cadherin is added to the plate, it binds to the antibodies coated on the wells. Then, a horseradish peroxidase conjugated mouse anti-Human VE-Cadherin Antibody is added to the wells and binds to VE-Cadherin in the sample. After washing the wells, substrate solutions are added, and the color intensity is directly proportional to the amount of Human VE-Cadherin present. The reaction is stopped by adding an acidic stop solution, and the absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background Cadherins (Calcium dependent adhesion molecules) are a class of transmembrane proteins. Cadherin-5, also known as VE-cadherin, CDH5 and CD144, an endothelial specific cell-cell adhesion molecule, plays a pivotal role in the formation, maturation and remodeling of the vascular wall. VE-Cadherin is widely considered to be specific for vascular endothelia in which it is either the sole or the predominant cadherin, often co-existing with N-cadherin. This specificity of VE-cadherin for vascular endothelial cells is important not only in blood and lymph vessel biology and medicine, but also for cell-type-based diagnoses, notably those of metastatic tumors. As a classical cadherin, VE-Cadherin links endothelial cells together by homophilic interactions mediated by its extracellular part and associates intracellularly with the actin cytoskeleton via catenins. Mechanisms that regulate VE-cadherin-mediated adhesion are important for the control of vascular permeability and leukocyte extravasation. In addition to its adhesive functions, VE-Cadherin regulates various cellular processes such as cell proliferation and apoptosis and modulates vascular endothelial growth factor receptor functions. Consequently, VE-cadherin is essential during embryonic angiogenesis.
