ANGPTL8 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein angiopoietin like 8, which is encoded by the ANGPTL8 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a reported hormone that acts as a blood lipid regulator by regulating serum triglyceride levels. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 198 residues, a mass of 22.1 kDa, and is a member of the ANGPTL8 protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported to be highly expressed in the liver. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally cleaved. The ANGPTL8 gene has been associated with the disease, Type 1 diabetes mellitus. Other alias names for this target include hepatocellular carcinoma-associated gene TD26, hepatocellular carcinoma-associated protein TD26, lipasin, refeeding-induced fat and liver protein, and angiopoietin-like protein 8.
There are ANGPTL8 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 5 ng/L and as high as 40 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
