Background

Progranulin, also known as Acrogranin, PCDGF, and Epithelin/Granulin Precursor, is a widely expressed glycoprotein that can undergo proteolysis to generate numerous Granulin peptides. Progranulin plays a role in the regulation of mesothelial differentiation, macrophage development, sexual differentiation of the brain, cartilage proliferation, wound repair, and the development of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. It is often upregulated in cancer and contributes to tumor progression. Progranulin upregulation or mutation is associated with several neurological disorders including frontotemporal dementia, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and motor neuron 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.
