Sandwich ELISA quantitative detection kit for Human MIP-1 alpha in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA, citrate). Macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha), also called CCL3, LD78. The cDNA for MIP-1 alpha predicts a mature peptide of 69 amino acids with a molecular mass of 7,889 daltons.1 LD78 is a member of a newly identified superfamily of small inducible proteins involved in inflammatory responses, wound healing and tumorigenesis. MIP-1 alpha is a chemokine that has pro-inflammatory and stem cell inhibitory activities in vitro. It constitutes an important second signal for mast cell degranulation in the conjunctiva in vivo and consequently for acute-phase disease. The standard product used in this kit is recombinant human MIP-1alpha, consisting of 66 amino acids with the molecular mass of 7.5kD. Assay Range: 31.2pg/ml-2000pg/ml Sensitivity: < 10 pg/ml Crossreactivity: There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.
