Human 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) ELISA Kit | KTE60834 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Human 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate 5-HETE in samples. An antibody specific for 5-HETE has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any5-HETE present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for 5-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 5-HETE bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Usage Note: • Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.
• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.

Storage Instruction: The unopened kit should be stored at 2 - 8°C. After opening, please store refer to protocols.

Background: 5-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) is an endogenous eicosanoid. 5-HETE is an intermediate in the pathway of leukotriene synthesis. In addition, it is a modulator of tubuloglomerular feedback. 5-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid is a key intermediate of the arachidonate-dependent protective signaling in monocytes/macrophages exposed to peroxynitrite. Peroxynitrite elicited the nuclear membrane translocation of 5-LO and enhanced its enzymatic activity via a mechanism sensitive to low concentrations of inhibitors of 5-LO or the 5-LO-activating protein, as well as to genetic depletion of the latter enzyme. Inhibition of 5-LO activity was invariably associated with the cytosolic localization of PKC, the mitochondrial accumulation of Bad, and a rapid MPT-dependent necrosis. All these events were prevented by nanomolar concentrations of the 5-LO product 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid.
