Human High Affinity Nerve Growth Factor Receptor (NTRK1) ELISA Kit

Human High Affinity Nerve Growth Factor Receptor (NTRK1) ELISA Kit

This ELISA kit is designed to detect Human High Affinity Nerve Growth Factor Receptor (Human NTRK1). The assay plate has been pre-coated with mouse anti-Human TrkA monoclonal antibody. When the sample containing TrkA is added to the plate, it binds to the antibodies coated on the wells. Then, a horseradish peroxidase conjugated mouse anti-Human TrkA Antibody is added to the wells and binds to TrkA in the sample. After washing the wells, substrate solutions are added, and the color intensity is directly proportional to the amount of Human TrkA present. The reaction is stopped by adding an acidic stop solution, and the absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background TRKA is a member of the neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor (NTKR) family. It is a membrane-bound receptor that, upon neurotrophin binding, phosphorylates itself and members of the MAPK pathway. Isoform TrkA-III promotes angiogenesis and has oncogenic activity when overexpressed. Isoform TrkA-I is found in most non-neuronal tissues. Isoform TrkA-II is primarily expressed in neuronal cells. TrkA-III is specifically expressed by the pluripotent neural stem and neural crest progenitors. The presence of NTRK1 leads to cell differentiation and may play a role in specifying sensory neuron subtypes. Mutations in the TRKA gene have been associated with congenital insensitivity to pain, anhidrosis, self-mutilating behavior, mental retardation, and cancer. It was originally identified as an oncogene as it is commonly mutated in cancers, particularly colon and thyroid carcinomas. TRKA is required for high-affinity binding to nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-3 and neurotrophin-4/5 but not brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Known substrates for the Trk receptors are SHC1, PI 3-kinase, and PLC-gamma-1. NTRK1 has a crucial role in the development and function of the nociceptive reception system as well as the establishment of thermal regulation via sweating. It also activates ERK1 by either SHC1- or PLC-gamma-1-dependent signaling pathway. Defects in NTRK1 are a cause of congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis and thyroid papillary carcinoma.
