Alternate Names for Human Granzyme B DuoSet ELISA, 5 Plate
Background
Granzyme B is a member of the granzyme family of serine proteases found specifically in
granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and natural killer (NK) cells (1, 2). Granzyme B plays
an essential role in granule-mediated apoptosis utilizing the substrates in this pathway, such as
Caspase 3, Caspase 8 and Bid (3, 4). Recent research indicates expanded Granzyme B
functionality to include extracellular roles along with its classical pro-apoptotic function. It has
been found that Granzyme B is an important mediator of skin injury, repair and inflammation
(4) through extracellular substrates including Laminin, VE-Cadherin, Fibronectin and the
proteoglycans Aggrecan (3) and Decorin (4).
As one of the five Granzymes (A, B, H, K and M) identified in the human genome, Granzyme B
(32kDa) (5) is the most widely researched in terms of its biological function and its utility in
health and disease (4). It is synthesized as a precursor (247 residues) with a signal peptide
(residues 1-18), a pro-peptide (residues 19-20), and a mature chain (residues 21-247) (6-8).
Once inside granules, Granzyme B is fully processed into the mature chain and becomes an
active protease when the pro-peptide, Gly-Glu is removed from the N-terminus by cleavage
with Cathepsin C (9). The protease activity of Granzyme B is tightly controlled by Serpin B9/
Protease Inhibitor 9 (9). The amino acid sequence of human Granzyme B is 71%, 69%, and 68%
identical to its canine, rat, and mouse counterparts, respectively.
Granzymes have been shown to modulate inflammation, and Granzyme B plasma levels have
been found higher with atopic dermatitis and psoriasis when compared to healthy controls.
This is in contrast to Granzyme A plasma levels which remain unchanged (10). Serum from
patients with Crohn's disease have significantly higher Granzyme B levels than controls (11).

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.
