The following Resistin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of resistin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the RETN gene. This protein is a reported hormone that seems to suppress insulin ability to stimulate glucose uptake into adipose cells (By similarity). The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 108 residues, a mass of 11.4 kDa, and is a member of the Resistin/FIZZ protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in white adipose tissue. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. This protein may also be known as adipose tissue-specific secretory factor, c/EBP-epsilon-regulated myeloid-specific secreted cysteine-rich protein, cysteine-rich secreted protein A12-alpha-like 2, and C/EBP-epsilon regulated myeloid-specific secreted cysteine-rich protein precursor 1.
Some resistin ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.24 pg/mL and as high as 1000 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
