IGFBP-3 (Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3) modulates the biological activity of IGF. It circulates in a ternary complex with IGF and the acid-labile subunit (ALS). Proteolysis of IGFBP-3 by tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a disintegrin and metalloproteases (ADAMs), and prostate specific antigen (PSA) contributes to IGFBP-3 degradation or a reduction in its affinity for IGF. The majority of soluble IGFBP-3 found in circulation is secreted from hepatic non-parenchymal cells. IGFBP-3 potentiates EGF-EGFR-mediated cell growth, modulates adipogenesis, and regulates TGF-beta signaling, DNA damage, apoptosis, autophagy, and gene transcription.

Recovery for Human IGFBP-3 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of IGFBP-3 spiked to three different levels throughout the range of the assay was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Media (n=4) | 94 | 89-99 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of IGFBP-3 were serially diluted with Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Protocols
View specific protocols for Human IGFBP-3 Quantikine ELISA Kit (DGB300):
- Prepare all reagents, standard dilutions, and samples as directed in the product insert.
- Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame, return them to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal.
- Add 100 µL of Assay Diluent to each well.
- Add 100 µL of Standard, control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at 2-8 °C for 2 hours.
- Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process 3 times for a total of 4 washes.
- Add 200 µL of cold Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at 2-8 °C for 2 hours.
- Aspirate and wash 4 times.
- Add 200 µL Substrate Solution to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.
- Add 50 µL of Stop Solution to each well. Read at 450 nm within 30 minutes. Set wavelength correction to 540 nm or 570 nm.
