Species

Human

Specificity

The assay detects both natural and recombinant human TGF beta 1. The cross reactivity of TGF beta 2 and TGF beta 3, and of TNF beta, IL- 8, IL-6, IL-2, TNF alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-4, IFN gamma, IL-12p70, IL-5 and IL-10 was evaluated by spiking these proteins at physiologically relevant concentrations into serum. There was no cross reactivity detected.

Description

The human TGF-beta1 ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative detection of human TGF-beta1.

Precision

Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) CV% 3.20%

Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) CV% 4.90%

Background: TGF-beta 1

TGF-beta plays a critical role in cellular growth, development, differentiation, proliferation, extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and degradation, control of mesenchymal-epithelial interactions during embryogenesis, immune modulation, apoptosis, cell cycle progression, angiogenesis, adhesion and migration and leukocyte chemotaxis. It has both tumor suppressive and tumor promoting activities and is highly regulated at all levels. TGF-beta1 is the key mediator in the pathophysiology of tissue repair and human fibrogenesis: balance between production and degradation of type I collagen, and fibrosis and scarring in organ and tissue. TGF-beta1 promotes Treg cell differentiation resulting in IL-10/TGF-beta1 production and Th1 cell and Th2 cell suppression.

FAQs for Human TGF-beta 1 ELISA Kit (Colorimetric)

Showing  1 - 2 of 2 FAQs Showing All

  • Q: Does TGF-beta 1 react across multiple species?

    A: TGF-beta 1 is a highly conserved molecule varying by just a few amino acids  between most species, and thus it is extremely likely to react across species. For example, human TGF-beta 1 is active on mouse cells and vice versa.

  • Q: Will Recombinant Human TGF-beta 1 support the maintenance of either human or non-human cultured cells?

    A: TGF-beta 1 performs multiple cellular functions, including cell growth, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis.  It would be necessary to determine the specific conditions for cell growth/proliferation for the cells being cultured.
