Product details:
Mouse JAM-A ELISA Kit is designed for the quantitative determination of JAM-A in cell culture supernatants, plasma and serum samples.
This assay employs an antibody specific for mouse JAM-A coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and JAM-A present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-mouse JAM-A antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of JAM-A bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
This ELISA kit shows no cross-reactivity with the following cytokines tested: Mouse CD30, L CD30, T CD40, CRG-2, CTACK, CXCL16, Eotaxin , Eotaxin-2, Fas Ligand, Fractalkine, GCSF, GM-CFS, IFN-gamma, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-5, IGFBP-6, IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-2, IL-3, IL-3 Rb, IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12 p40/p70, IL-12 p70, IL-13, IL17, KC, Leptin R, LEPTIN(OB), LIX, L-Selectin, Lymphotactin, MCP-1, MCP-5, M-CSF, MIG, MIP-1 alpha, MIP-1 gamma, MIP-2, MIP-3 beta, MIP-3 alpha, PF-4, P-Selectin, RANTES, SCF, SDF-1 alpha, TARC, TCA-3, TECK, TIMP-1, TNF-alpah, TNF RI, TNF RII, TPO, VCAM-1, VEGF.

Junctional Adhesion Molecule 1 also known as JAM-A or JAM-A protein is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It has a mass of roughly 32 kDa. This molecule functions in tight junctions of epithelial and endothelial cells playing an important role in regulating paracellular permeability. JAM-A is expressed in tissues where tight junctions are present including the skin gastrointestinal tract and endothelia throughout the body.
Biological function summary
JAM-A functions as a cell adhesion molecule influencing processes like leukocyte transmigration and epithelial barrier formation. It does not act alone but rather forms complexes with other proteins at cell junctions. JAM-A interacts with other junctional proteins like occludin and claudins contributing to the structure and function of tight junctions.
Pathways
JAM-A participates in cellular processes involving inflammation and cell migration. It is an integral part of the signal transduction pathways that regulate leukocyte migration an important aspect of immune response. JAM-A is also associated with G-protein coupled receptors in these pathways highlighting its role in regulating intracellular signaling that affects cell adhesion and migration.
JAM-A has connections with cancer progression and cardiovascular diseases. Its overexpression has been linked to several cancers including breast cancer due to its role in enhancing cell migration and invasion. In cardiovascular diseases JAM-A interacts with platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) influencing the inflammatory response within vascular tissues. Understanding these interactions can aid in developing therapeutic strategies targeting JAM-A in related diseases.
