Description
Product Characteristics: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of VCAM1 in canine serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates.
Target Information: This gene is a member of the Ig superfamily and encodes a cell surface sialoglycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium. This type I membrane protein mediates leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion and signal transduction, and may play a role in the development of artherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Three alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
