Rat VGF (VGF Nerve Growth Factor Inducible) ELISA Kit

Rat VGF (VGF Nerve Growth Factor Inducible) ELISA Kit

The Rat (VGF) VGF Nerve Growth Factor Inducible ELISA Kit measures VGF Nerve Growth Factor Inducible in Rat samples. The plate has been pre-coated with Rat VGF antibody. VGF present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Rat VGF Antibody is added and binds to VGF in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated VGF antibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of Rat VGF. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background Nerve growth factor is important for the development and maintenance of the sympathetic and sensory nervous systems. Extracellular ligand for the NTRK1 and NGFR receptors, activates cellular signaling cascades to regulate neuronal proliferation, differentiation and survival (By similarity). The immature NGF precursor (proNGF) functions as ligand for the heterodimeric receptor formed by SORCS2 and NGFR, and activates cellular signaling cascades that lead to inactivation of RAC1 and/or RAC2, reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and neuronal growth cone collapse. In contrast to mature NGF, the precursor form (proNGF) promotes neuronal apoptosis (in vitro) (By similarity). Inhibits metalloproteinase-dependent proteolysis of platelet glycoprotein VI (By similarity). Binds lysophosphatidylinositol and lysophosphatidylserine between the two chains of the homodimer. The lipid-bound form promotes histamine relase from mast cells, contrary to the lipid-free form (By similarity). Source: UniProt Consortium (2025)
