Product details:
Human Bone Sialoprotein ELISA Kit ab277706 is a rapid single-wash 90-min Sandwich ELISA to measure Human Bone Sialoprotein in citrate plasma, EDTA plasma, heparin plasma, serum. This SimpleStep sensitivity is 9 pg/mL.
How the assay works
Human Bone Sialoprotein SimpleStep ELISA
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.
Assay Specificity
Our SimpleStep ELISA
kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

Bone Sialoprotein, also known as IBSP, is a matrix protein that plays a role in mineralization of bone and other calcified structures. The exact function of this protein is currently under investigation. The immunogen with which the antibodies in this kit were raised is composed of the full-length mature protein. This protein is not homologous with other species; as such, it is not expected to cross-react.

Bone Sialoprotein (BSP) is a non-collagenous glycoprotein of the SIBLING (Small Integrin-Binding Ligand N-linked Glycoprotein) family with a mass around 70-80 kDa. Its expression mainly takes place in mineralized tissues like bone and dentin highlighting its importance in skeletal biology. BSP has a strong affinity for calcium and hydroxyapatite allowing it to play binding and structural roles in bone matrix formation.
Biological function summary
The protein influences the nucleation of hydroxyapatite crystals and helps regulate mineralization processes. It associates with collagenous and non-collagenous components in the bone and contributes to tissue integrity and repair. BSP functions as part of a complex matrix that orchestrates cell adhesion and signal transduction impacting osteoblast and osteoclast activity.
Pathways
Bone Sialoprotein interacts within the extracellular matrix organization pathway and the integrin signaling pathway. In the extracellular matrix pathway BSP plays a role together with proteins like osteopontin also from the SIBLING family to influence cellular adhesion. Through integrin signaling BSP modulates cell-surface interactions particularly affecting the behavior of osteoclasts and osteoblasts and their capacity to maintain bone homeostasis.
Bone Sialoprotein associates with pathological conditions such as osteosarcoma and osteoporosis. In osteosarcoma BSP overexpression correlates with aggressive tumor growth potentially linking it with the tumor protein osteopontin suggesting a marker for malignancy. In osteoporosis dysregulation of BSP expression may affect bone density contributing to weakened bone structure alongside changes in other bone matrix proteins.
