Product details:
Human CD51 ELISA Kit (ab235650) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CD51 protein in cell culture extracts and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human CD51 with 13.8 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep 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:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (
ab203359
) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Integrin alpha V also known as integrin av CD51 and CD51/CD61 is a transmembrane protein with an approximate mass of 125 kDa. It functions mechanically by mediating cell adhesion and signaling through its interaction with the extracellular matrix and other cells. Integrin alpha V is widely expressed in a variety of tissues including endothelial and epithelial cells as well as some tumor cells. This protein forms heterodimers typically with beta subunits like CD61 which is also referred to as beta 3 integrin to execute its biological functions.
Biological function summary
Integrin alpha V plays a pivotal role in cellular processes such as migration proliferation and survival. It participates in the formation of multi-molecular complexes within cellular structures. The integrin av integrins particularly in conjunction with its CD51/CD61 form contribute to the regulation of angiogenesis immune response and wound healing. These functions arise from the integrin’s ability to act as a receptor for numerous ligands including fibrinogen fibronectin and vitronectin.
Pathways
Integrin alpha V is a critical component of the integrin signaling and focal adhesion pathways. These pathways involve a network of interactions that include proteins like focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Src family kinases. Integrin alpha V’s interaction within these pathways assists in transmitting mechanical signals from the extracellular environment to the intracellular signaling cascades affecting cytoskeleton dynamics and gene expression. The pathway interactions with integrin av also coordinate complex signaling with other receptors and matrix proteins like laminins enhancing cellular communication and response to environmental changes.
Integrin alpha V’s dysregulation associates with conditions such as cancer and fibrosis. Overexpression or aberrant functioning of integrin av contributes to tumor progression and metastasis by promoting angiogenesis and cell migration. In fibrotic diseases the protein's interactions with the extracellular matrix components are altered leading to excessive tissue scarring and dysfunction. Furthermore integrin alpha V interplays with proteins such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the tumor microenvironment facilitating tissue remodeling and cancer cell invasion.
