Specification
Description:
Rat adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) ELISA kit (12.35-1000 pg/mL) is a ready-to-use ELISA kit for analyzing rat ACTH levels with a detection range of 12.35-1000 pg/mL and a sensitivity of 5.25 pg/mL.
Background:
ACTH stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol. Defects in POMC may be associated with susceptibility to obesity (OBESITY). It is a condition characterized by an increase in body weight beyond the limitations of skeletal and physical requirements, as a result of excessive accumulation of body fat. Defects in POMC are the cause of pro-opiomelanocortinin deficiency (POMCD). Affected individuals present early-onset obesity, adrenal insufficiency, and red hair.
Formula Weight:
26,707 Da
Assay Principle:
The kit is based on the ACTH antibody-ACTH antigen interaction (immunosorbent) and the HRP colorimetric detection system to detect ACTH antigen targets in samples.
ELISA Type:
Competitive inhibition
Assay Target:
ACTH
Target Species:
Rat
Research Area:
Hormone research; Metabolites; Signaling pathway; Glucose homeostasis; Regulation of appetite; Obesity
