It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human PLTP with 46.254 pg\/ml sensitivity.\u003cbr\u003e\nSimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:\u003cbr\u003e\n-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less\u003cbr\u003e\n-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fully validated in biological samples\u003cbr\u003e\n-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips\u003cbr\u003e\nA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (\u003cbr\u003e\nab203359\u003cbr\u003e\n) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.\u003cbr\u003e\nREACH authorisation\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nPLTP also known as Phospholipid Transfer Protein is an important component in human lipid metabolism. This protein functions by transferring phospholipids between different types of lipoproteins in plasma. PLTP possesses a molecular mass of about 56 kDa. Its expression occurs mainly in the liver and adipose tissue with additional presence in the brain and lungs. These locales of expression facilitate its key roles in lipid processing and lipoprotein metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPLTP plays a significant role in remodeling high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and regulating lipoprotein particles. PLTP exists as a part of a larger complex involved in these processes interacting closely with other proteins in the lipoprotein maturation and transformation. This activity of PLTP significantly affects the levels and sizes of HDL particles in circulation thereby influencing cholesterol homeostasis within the body.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPLTP acts within the reverse cholesterol transport pathway important for the removal of excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues. The protein works alongside Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) and Lecithin-Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT) to promote cholesterol efflux and HDL maturation. Another key pathway involving PLTP is the lipid metabolism pathway where it influences lipid levels and impacts the function of other proteins such as Apolipoprotein E (ApoE).\u003cbr\u003e\nPLTP has associations with atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome. Variations in PLTP activity or expression can lead to altered HDL levels increasing the risk for heart disease and related cardiovascular conditions. In atherosclerosis PLTP's relationship with ApoA-I becomes especially relevant as this interaction influences lipid transport dynamics and plaque formation. Additionally in metabolic syndrome abnormal PLTP function may contribute to dyslipidemia a common factor in metabolic disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855624917161,"sku":"ab289907","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab289907","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
