Sheep COX-1 (Cyclooxygenase-1) ELISA Kit

Sheep COX-1 (Cyclooxygenase-1) ELISA Kit

The Sheep (COX-1) Cyclooxygenase-1 ELISA Kit measures cyclooxygenase-1 in Sheep samples. The plate has been pre-coated with Sheep COX-1 antibody. COX-1 present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Sheep COX-1 Antibody is added and binds to COX-1 in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated COX-1 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 Sheep COX-1. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background Dual cyclooxygenase and peroxidase in the biosynthesis pathway of prostanoids, a class of C20 oxylipins mainly derived from arachidonate, with a particular role in the inflammatory response. The cyclooxygenase activity oxygenates arachidonate (AA, C20:4(n-6)) to the hydroperoxy endoperoxide prostaglandin G2 (PGG2), and the peroxidase activity reduces PGG2 to the hydroxy endoperoxide PGH2, the precursor of all 2-series prostaglandins and thromboxanes. This complex transformation is initiated by abstraction of hydrogen at carbon 13 (with S-stereochemistry), followed by insertion of molecular O2 to form the endoperoxide bridge between carbon 9 and 11 that defines prostaglandins. The insertion of a second molecule of O2 (bis-oxygenase activity) yields a hydroperoxy group in PGG2 that is then reduced to PGH2 by two electrons (PubMed:7947975). Involved in the constitutive production of prostanoids in particular in the stomach and platelets. In gastric epithelial cells, it is a key step in the generation of prostaglandins, such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which plays an important role in cytoprotection. In platelets, it is involved in the generation of thromboxane A2 (TXA2), which promotes platelet activation and aggregation, vasoconstriction and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (PubMed:10438452).
