Rat VEGF-C ELISA Kit (Colorimetric) Summary

• Description: The rat VEGF-C ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative detection of rat VEGF-C
• Specificity: The assay detects both natural and recombinant rat VEGF-C. The cross reactivity and interference of circulating factors of the immune system was evaluated by spiking these proteins at physiologically relevant concentrations into a rat VEGF-C positive serum. There was no cross reactivity or interference detected, notably not with rat VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEGF-D, PDGF-AA,PDGF-BB, PLGF, HGF, EGF, VEGF-R1 and KDR.
• Standard Curve Range: 47.0 - 3,000 pg/mL
• Sensitivity: 27.0 pg/mL
• Assay Type: Sandwich ELISA
• Inter-Assay: CV% < 2.7%
• Intra-Assay: CV% < 5.1%
• Sample Volume: 50 uL
• Kit Type: ELISA Kit (Colorimetric)

Background

Vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) is a member of the VEGF family of cytokines. It has been shown to exhibit angiogenic and lymphangiogenic actions. The VEGF family of growth factors and receptors is involved in the development and growth of the vascular endothelial system. Two of its family members, VEGF-C and VEGF-D, regulate the lymphatic endothelial cells via their receptor VEGFR3, thus acting as mitogens for these cells. VEGF-C expression is associated with hematological malignancies. Like VEGF it acts as survival factor on leukemia. Together with the expression of their receptors, VEGF and VEGF-C result in the generation of autocrine loops that may support cancer cell survival and proliferation. Further VEGF-C expression has been shown in gastrointestinal tract malignancies where it correlates with lymphatic invasion, lymphnode metastasis and reduced survival.

1. I was wondering if you know of any blocking antibodies against IL-6 or VEGF-C that can be used in cell culture to quench these cytokines?
   • We have no antibodies that are currently known to show blocking antibodies to VEGF-C. Please see this link to our IL-6 antibodies with blocking/neutralizing activity can be found at this link.
