CD5 antigen-like, also known as Sp alpha and AIM, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CD5L gene. It is mapped to 1q21-q23 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. It is found that Aim expression is induced in mouse macrophages in response to loading with highly oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL), and that Aim is expressed in foam cells within atherosclerotic lesions. Both the expression of Aim in lesions and its induction by oxLDL require Lxr /Rxr heterodimers. Aim-null macrophages are highly susceptible to oxLDL-induced apoptosis in vitro and undergo accelerated apoptosis in atherosclerotic lesions in vivo. Double knockout of Aim and Ldlr reduce atherosclerotic lesions. Therefore, it is concluded that AIM expression protects macrophages from apoptosis within atherosclerotic lesions, promoting early lesion development. Sample Type: Cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA) Intended Use: For quantitative detection of mouse CD5L in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Sensitivity: <10pg/ml Range: 156-10,000pg/ml Specificity: Natural and recombinant mouse CD5L Test Principle: This mouse CD5L BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for CD5L has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, E22-V352) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for CD5L is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the mouse CD5L amount of sample captured in plate. Kit Components: 96-well plate precoated with mouse CD5L antibody, 1 Lyophilized recombinant mouse CD5Lstandard, 10ng/tube*2 Biotinylated mouse CD5L antibody, 130ul (dilution 1:100) Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex (ABC), 130ul (dilution 1:100) Sample diluent buffer, 30ml Antibody diluent buffer, 12ml ABC diluent buffer, 12ml TMB color developing agent, 10ml TMB stop solution, 10ml Storage and Stability: Store powder at 4C liquid at -20C.
