This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, allowing for accurate and reproducible results in various experimental settings.TNF receptor II, also known as TNFR2, is a key receptor involved in mediating the effects of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a critical cytokine in the regulation of immune responses and inflammation. Dysregulation of TNF receptor II has been implicated in various diseases, including autoimmune disorders, inflammatory conditions, and cancer.
By accurately measuring TNF receptor II levels, researchers can gain valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying these diseases and develop targeted therapies.Overall, the TNF Receptor II Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a valuable tool for researchers looking to investigate the role of TNF receptor II in various physiological and pathological processes, making it a versatile option for a wide range of research applications.

The TNF Receptor II Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can detect TNF Receptor II protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of TNF Receptor II in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on TNF Receptor II.
Qualitative determination of TNF Receptor II concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, TNF Receptor II is captured by TNF Receptor II-specific primary antibodies while the HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies bind the Fc region of the primary antibody. Through this binding, the HRP enzyme conjugated to the secondary antibody can catalyze a colorimetric reaction upon substrate addition. Due to the qualitative nature of the Cell-Based ELISA, multiple normalization methods are needed:
| 1. | A monoclonal antibody specific for human GAPDH is included to serve as an internal positive control in normalizing the target absorbance values. |
| 2. | Following the colorimetric measurement of HRP activity via substrate addition, the Crystal Violet whole-cell staining method may be used to determine cell density. After staining, the results can be analysed by normalizing the absorbance values to cell amounts, by which the plating difference can be adjusted. |

| UniProt Protein Function: | TNF-R2: Receptor with high affinity for TNFSF2/TNF-alpha and approximately 5-fold lower affinity for homotrimeric TNFSF1/lymphotoxin-alpha. The TRAF1/TRAF2 complex recruits the apoptotic suppressors BIRC2 and BIRC3 to TNFRSF1B/TNFR2. This receptor mediates most of the metabolic effects of TNF-alpha. Isoform 2 blocks TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis, which suggests that it regulates TNF-alpha function by antagonizing its biological activity. Binds to TRAF2. Interacts with BMX. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |

| NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This protein and TNF-receptor 1 form a heterocomplex that mediates the recruitment of two anti-apoptotic proteins, c-IAP1 and c-IAP2, which possess E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. The function of IAPs in TNF-receptor signalling is unknown, however, c-IAP1 is thought to potentiate TNF-induced apoptosis by the ubiquitination and degradation of TNF-receptor-associated factor 2, which mediates anti-apoptotic signals. Knockout studies in mice also suggest a role of this protein in protecting neurons from apoptosis by stimulating antioxidative pathways. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
