Analysis of TGF-α (Human) by MSD Hypersensitive Multi-Factor Electrochemiluminescence Analyzer (CAT#: STEM-MB-0571-LGZ)

Introduction

Gene expression of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-α) is upregulated in some human cancers and is associated with tumor metastasis and invasion. Produced in macrophages, brain cells and keratinocytes, it induces epithelial development and has a similar effect to the receptor for EGF (Epithelial Growth Factor). TGFα stimulates the proliferation of nerve cells in the damaged adult brain.




Principle

MSD electrochemiluminescence technology is mainly based on ultra-sensitive multi-factor electrochemiluminescence analyzer MES0 Sector600 or Quickplex SQ120. Through dot matrix technology, the detection of 10 indicators per well can be realized in the 96-hole graphite electrode plate. It can also be customized to realize the screening detection of 100 index wells in a 24-well plate.

Applications

Growth Factors, Cardiovascular

Procedure

1. Coat the capture antibody on the well plate.
2. Add samples/calibrators.
3. Add detection antibody.
4. Read the plate and analyze the data.

Materials

• Sample Type: Plasma, Serum
