Human 12-HETE12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid ELISA Kit

12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid (12-HETE) ELISA Kit is an ELISA Kit for the in vitro quantitative measurement of 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid (12-HETE) concentrations in serum, plasma and other biological fluids.Human 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human 12-HETE. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human 12-HETE and analogues was observed. 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) is an eicosanoid. It is a metabolite of arachidonic acid produced by the action of the enzyme arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase. 12-HETE is a highly selective ligand used to label mu opioid receptors.

12-HETE can activate Cdc42, Rac1 and PI-3K, which then participate as upstream signalling molecules for PAK1 and JNK1 activation. 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) is a chemotactic stimulus for epidermal cells. 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE), the main eicosanoid in skin, is assumed to have both pathophysiologic effects in inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis and atopic eczema and a physiologic role in the biology of cutaneous reparative processes. The modulation of epidermal 12-HETE receptors by UV-B may partly explain the therapeutic effects of UV-B, but possibly also contribute to photodamage to skin.

This Human 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate 12-HETE in samples. An antibody specific for 12-HETE has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any12-HETE present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for 12-HETE is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of 12-HETE bound in the initial step Bioscience. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Sample Collection/Preparation
  • Serum: Samples should be collected into a serum separator tube. Coagulate the serum by leaving the tube undisturbed in a vertical position overnight at 4°C or at room temperature for up to 60 minutes. Centrifuge at approximately 1000 × g for 20 min. Analyze the serum immediately or aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C.
  • Plasma: Collect plasma using heparin or EDTA as an anticoagulant. Centrifuge for 15 minutes at 1000 × g within 30 minutes of collection. Assay immediately or aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid hemolysis and high cholesterol samples.
  • Tissue homogenates: The preparation of tissue homogenates will vary depending upon tissue type – this is just an example. Rinse tissues with ice-cold PBS to remove the excess of blood. Weigh before homogenization. Finely mince tissues and homogenize with a tissue homogenizer on ice in PBS and sonicate the cell suspension. Centrifuge the homogenates at 5000 × g for 5 min and collect the supernatant. Assay immediately or aliquot and store at -20°C.

Please note that our ELISA and CLIA kits are optimised for detection of native samples, rather than recombinant proteins. We are unable to guarantee detection of recombinant proteins, as they may have different sequences or tertiary structures to the native protein.

 

This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique.

The micro-plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid (12-HETE) protein. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate micro-plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid (12-HETE). Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm±10nm. The concentration of 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid (12-HETE) in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
