Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Human Cytoglobin present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed, and biotinylated anti-Human Cytoglobin 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 Human Cytoglobin bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nCytoglobin also known as CYGB is a globin protein with a molecular weight of approximately 21 kDa. This protein is part of the vertebrate globin family and exhibits oxygen-binding properties. Cytoglobin is mainly expressed in fibroblasts and is detectable in various tissues including the liver brain and kidney. It functions as an intracellular hemoprotein which allows it to facilitate oxygen transport and storage similar to other globins like hemoglobin and myoglobin.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThis globin plays a role in cellular protective mechanisms. Cytoglobin participates in protecting cells from hypoxic and oxidative stress thereby contributing to oxygen homeostasis. Although it is not part of a known protein complex its ability to bind oxygen and reactive oxygen species indicates its significant role in mitigating cellular damage. By maintaining a balance of oxygen levels inside cells cytoglobin helps preserve cellular integrity under stressful conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCytoglobin interacts in significant biological processes related to oxygen regulation. It is closely involved in the hypoxia response pathway where it aids in adapting cells to low oxygen environments. Cytoglobin operates alongside proteins such as hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) which help regulate gene expression in response to oxygen availability. It also plays a role in the oxidative stress response connecting to systems involving antioxidant proteins that help mitigate the effects of reactive oxygen species.\u003cbr\u003e\nCytoglobin has links to conditions like cancer and fibrotic diseases. Its role in oxygen regulation and response to hypoxia makes it relevant in tumor biology as tumors often create hypoxic environments that promote cancer progression. Cytoglobin's connection to cancer involves interactions with hypoxia-inducible factors that drive tumor adaptability. Additionally in fibrotic diseases such as liver fibrosis cytoglobin's expression levels correlate with disease severity suggesting it as a marker in fibrosis progression. This relation implies potential interactions with proteins like transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) which plays a role in fibrotic tissue development.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843780923561,"sku":"ab277460","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab277460","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
