Human GDNF Quantikine ELISA Kit Summary

• Background: The Quantikine^® Human GDNF Immunoassay is a 4.0 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure human GDNF levels in cell culture supernates, cell lysates, tissue lysates, serum, and plasma. It contains NS0-expressed recombinant human GDNF and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. Results obtained for naturally occurring human GDNF showed linear curves that were parallel ...to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine^® Human GDNF Immunoassay standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural human GDNF.

Background

GDNF (Glial Cell Line-derived Neurotrophic Factor) is a secreted protein that promotes the survival of motoneurons, midbrain dopaminergic neurons, Purkinje cells, and sympathetic neurons. It is produced by Sertoli cells, type 1 astrocytes, Schwann cells, neurons, pinealocytes, and skeletal muscle cells. GDNF binding to GFR alpha 1 induces the recruitment of Ret, NCAM-1/CD56, various integrins, Syndecan-3, or N-Cadherin. GDNF-based therapies show promise in several neurodegenerative disorders, particularly Parkinson’s disease.

1. What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
   • Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
