Nori Canine Klotho beta ELISA Kit

DataSheet   

This ELISA kit is for quantification of klotho beta in dog. This is a quick ELISA assay that reduces time to 50% compared to the conventional method, and the entire assay only takes 3 hours. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique and uses biotin-streptavidin chemistry to improve the performance of the assays. An antibody specific for KL has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any KL present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, a detection antibody specific for KL is added to the wells. Following wash to remove any unbound antibody reagent, a detection reagent is added. After intensive wash a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of KL bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped, and the intensity of the color is measured.

Alternative names for klotho beta: KL

Background: 

Klotho is an enzyme that is encoded by the KL gene.[1] It is a type-I membrane protein that is related to β-glucuronidases. Reduced production of this protein has been observed in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), and this may be one of the factors underlying the degenerative processes (e.g., arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis, and skin atrophy) seen in CRF. Also, mutations within this protein have been associated with ageing and bone loss.[2] Transgenic mice that overexpress Klotho live longer than wild-type mice.[3] Klotho is a transmembrane protein that, in addition to other effects, provides some control over the sensitivity of the organism to insulin and appears to be involved in aging. Its discovery was documented in 1997 by Kuro-o et al.[4] The Klotho protein is a novel β-glucuronidase capable of hydrolyzing steroid β-glucuronides. Klotho protein has been shown to be a circulating factor detectable in serum that declines with age.[5] Klotho-deficient mice manifest a syndrome resembling accelerated canine aging and display extensive and accelerated arteriosclerosis. Additionally, they exhibit impaired endothelium dependent vasodilation and impaired angiogenesis, suggesting that Klotho protein may protect the cardiovascular system through endothelium-derived NO production. The mechanism of action of klotho is not fully understood, but it changes cellular calcium homeostasis, by both increasing the expression and activity of TRPV5 and decreasing that of TRPC6.[6]
