Revvity, AL3206HV, AlphaLISA Human CCL17 Detection Kit, 100 Assay Points

Overview
Human CCL17, also known as thymus and activation regulated chemokine (TARC), was initially isolated from phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. CCL17 is constitutively expressed in the thymus and under activation in several cell types. CCL17-mediated recruitment of Th2 cells and CLA+ CD4+ T cells, plays a key role in allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis, allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, and allergic contact dermatitis. In addition, CCL17 has been detected in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. CCL17 and CCL22 secreted by dendritic cells (DCs) seems to mediate the recruitment of regulatory T cells to sites of inflammation in patients with chronic hepatitis. Increased levels of serum CCL17 is associated with a greater risk of developing atherosclerosis.

AlphaLISA technology allows the detection of molecules of interest in a no-wash, highly sensitive, quantitative assay. In an AlphaLISA assay, a biotinylated anti-analyte antibody binds to the Streptavidin-coated Donor beads while another anti-analyte antibody is conjugated to AlphaLISA Acceptor beads. In the presence of the analyte, the beads come into close proximity. The excitation of the Donor beads causes the release of singlet oxygen molecules that triggers a cascade of energy transfer in the Acceptor beads, resulting in a sharp peak of light emission at 615 nm.
How it works
Principle of the AlphaLISA human CCL17 assay
The AlphaLISA human CCL17 assay is based on an AlphaLISA sandwich immunoassay involving a biotinylated anti-target antibody bound to Streptavidin-coated AlphaLISA Donor beads and an anti-target antibody conjugated to AlphaLISA Acceptor beads. Both antibodies are directed against the CCL17 protein. In the presence of the target, both antibodies bind to CCL17 and the beads come into proximity. The excitation of the Donor beads provokes the release of singlet oxygen molecules that triggers a cascade of energy transfer within the Acceptor beads, resulting in emission with λmax at 615 nm. The intensity of the signal is directly proportional to the concentration of CCL17 present in the sample.

Protocol of the AlphaLISA human CCL17 assay

The AlphaLISA human CCL17 assay can be run in a 96- or 384-well detection plate (50 µL final). As described here, samples (cell supernatants or fluids) or standards are dispensed directly into the assay plate for the detection of CCL17 by AlphaLISA reagents. No washing steps are needed. The protocol can be further miniaturized or upscaled by simply resizing each addition volume proportionally. Automation Compatible-Yes
