Abcam, ab256646, Human NT-ProANP Antibody Pair - BSA and Azide free

Size: 10 x 96Tests
Human NT-ProANP Antibody Pair - BSA and Azide free is a kit containing recombinant capture and detector antibodies in a carrier-free formulation for the measurement of Human NT-ProANP.
Key facts
Reacts with:Human,
Assay type:ELISA set,
Range:78.1 - 5000 pg/mL,
Assay Platform:Reagents

Product details:
The Antibody Pair can be used to quantify Human NT-ProANP. BSA and Azide free antibody pairs include unconjugated capture and detector antibodies suitable for sandwich ELISAs. The antibodies are provided at an approximate concentration of 1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method. The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Both capture and detector antibodies are rabbit monoclonal antibodies delivering consistent, specific, and sensitive results.
For additional information on the performance of the antibody pair, see the equivalent SimpleStep ELISA® Kit (
ab245705
), which uses the same antibodies. However, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits. Please note that the range provided for the pairs is only an estimation based on the performance of the related product using the same antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody pair in your assay.

Natriuretic Peptides A also known as ANP ANF or NPPA are important cardiac hormones made by atrial myocytes in the heart. This peptide with a mass of around 28 amino acids plays an important role mechanically in modulating blood pressure and fluid balance. It achieves this by binding to receptors that activate cyclic GMP (cGMP) production leading to vasodilation. ANP expression is mainly found in cardiac muscle cells but also detected in other tissues under certain conditions.
Biological function summary
These peptides contribute to renal sodium excretion commonly known as natriuresis and also promote diuresis which increases urine volume. ANP functions as a singular hormone without forming part of a complex. Beyond its role in cardiovascular and renal systems ANP influences lipid metabolism and adipocyte functions which may have implications for metabolic health.
Pathways
ANP is engaged in the natriuretic peptide signaling pathway which is important for cardiovascular homeostasis. Within this pathway related proteins include B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) and C-type Natriuretic Peptide (CNP) all of which share similar receptor interactions through cGMP. Additionally ANP impacts the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) a significant hormonal system regulating blood pressure and fluid balance by counteracting the actions of angiotensin II.
ANP is notably associated with heart failure where its levels can indicate disease severity and prognosis. Elevated ANP levels have also been linked to hypertension contributing to diagnostic evaluations alongside other biomarkers like BNP. Both heart failure and hypertension involve complex interactions between ANP and proteins such as angiotensin II within their pathophysiological frameworks.
