DescriptionSMC™ Human VEGF-A High Sensitivity Immunoassay Kit
OverviewThe SMC™ Human VEGF-A High Sensitivity Immunoassay Kit contains all reagents required to perform the assay. This assay takes advantage of a standard immunoassay workflow configured in a standard plate format. Assay protocols are similar to existing sandwich ELISA methods with two key differences: 1) Elution buffer disrupts the sandwich, separating the labeled detection antibody for quantification. 2) The Erenna® and SMCxPRO™ immunoassay systems detect analytes using Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) technology.
Background InformationVascular Endothelial Cell Growth Factor A (VEGF-A), one of five members of the VEGF family (VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D and Placenta Growth Factor), is a signaling protein critical in angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, predominantly acting on vascular endothelial cells. It has an important role in embryonic development and in wound healing in adults but overexpression in disease can lead to conditions such as vascular disease in the retina, tumor development and growth due to enhanced blood supply while a decrease in VEGF in pulmonary arteries is associated with pulmonary emphysema.
