Product Summary for Human VE-Cadherin DuoSet ELISA
This DuoSet ELISA Development kit contains the basic components required for the development of sandwich ELISAs to measure natural and recombinant human VE-Cadherin. The suggested diluent is suitable for the analysis of most cell culture supernate samples. Diluents for complex matrices, such as serum and plasma, should be evaluated prior to use in this DuoSet ELISA.

Background: VE-Cadherin
VE-Cadherin, also known as Cadherin-5 and CD144, is a member of the atypical/type II subgroup of Cadherin homophilic adhesion proteins. A 90 kDa portion of the VE-Cadherin ECD can be shed in a metalloproteinase-dependent mechanism and may function as a VE-Cadherin antagonist. VE-Cadherin is expressed on the surface of vascular endothelial cells (EC) from early in embryogenesis through adulthood as well as in the placenta, on hematopoietic cell progenitors, and on a subpopulation of hematopoietic stem cells. It is a major protein component of adherens junctions between cells of the endothelium. VE-Cadherin supports the extension and stabilization of existing vascular sprouts. VE-Cadherin also regulates or is regulated by VEGF R2, type I and type II TGF-beta receptors, and other endothelial junction proteins such as JAM-C, Claudin-5, and N-Cadherin. Elevated levels of soluble VE-Cadherin are found in the serum of myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, rheumatoid arthritis, and colorectal cancer patients.
