Product Overview

Description: Rat cathepsin S (CTSS) ELISA kit (78.125-5000 pg/mL) is an ELISA-based in vitro research tool designed specifically for the quantitative detection of CTSS in rat with a range of 78.125-5000 pg/mL and a specificity of 46.875 pg/mL.

Assay Principle: The anti-rat CTSS antibody is pre-coated onto a 96-well plate. Biotin-conjugated anti-rat CTSS antibody is used as the detection antibody. Standards, test samples, and biotin-conjugated detection antibody are subsequently added to the wells and washed with buffer. HRP-Streptavidin is added, and the unbound conjugate is washed away with washing solution. TMB substrate is used to observe the HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB produces a blue product catalyzed by HRP, which turns yellow upon addition of an acidic termination solution. The density of the yellow color is proportional to the amount of rat CTSS sample captured in the plate. The concentration of rat CTSS is calculated by reading the absorbance at 450nm with a microplate reader.

Background: CTSS is an important member of the cysteine protease family. As a potent mammalian elastase, it can degrade various extracellular components, including fibronectin, laminin, elastin, and collagen. CTSS is abnormally expressed in various disease states, such as obesity and atherosclerosis, which makes it a biomarker and a potential therapeutic target. Studies have found that CTSS inhibitors may be a possible strategy for treating obesity.
