Background

VE-cadherin (cadherin-5) is an endothelial specific adhesion molecule that is essential for the maintenance of endothelial barrier function and angiogenesis. VE-cadherin is linked to the actin cytoskeleton through a number of adaptor proteins including a-, â-, and ã-catenin. Cytoskeletal dynamics and phosphorylation regulate VE-cadherin mediated cell-cell adhesion. The cytosolic C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) binds via its SH2 domain to the phosphorylated tyrosine 658 site of VE-cadherin. This interaction regulates density dependent cell proliferation. Phosphorylation of tyrosine 658 has also been shown to lead to the uncoupling of p120-catenin from the cytoplasmic tail of VE-cadherin. This phosphorylation event is sufficient to maintain cells in a mesenchymal state during the cell invasion phase of angiogenesis.

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.
