The Quantikine Human VE-Cadherin Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human VE-Cadherin in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains NS0-derived recombinant human VE-Cadherin and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human VE-Cadherin showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curve...s obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring human VE-Cadherin.
Store the unopened product at 2 - 8 °C. Do not use past expiration date.

Background
The cadherin superfamily comprises a large number of cell surface glycoproteins with one or more cadherin repeats, which are involved in Ca2+-dependent cell-cell adhesion. Classical cadherins contain five extracellular cadherin repeats and a conserved cytoplasmic region that interacts with the actin cytoskeleton via catenins. In addition to cell adhesion, cadherins also mediate morphogenesis, cytoskeletal organization, and cell migration. In addition to the classical cadherins, the cadherin superfamily also includes desmosomal cadherins, protocadherins, 7TM cadherins, FAT family cadherins, and T-cadherin.
