Product overview
Human Renin ELISA Kit (ab246545) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Renin protein in cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, serum, and urine. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human Renin with 5 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells stripsA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Function
Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in REN are a cause of renal tubular dysgenesis (RTD) [MIM:267430]. RTD is an autosomal recessive severe disorder of renal tubular development characterized by persistent fetal anuria and perinatal death, probably due to pulmonary hypoplasia from early-onset oligohydramnios (the Potter phenotype).
Defects in REN are the cause of familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy type 2 (HNFJ2) [MIM:613092]. It is a renal disease characterized by juvenile onset of hyperuricemia, slowly progressive renal failure and anemia. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase A1 family. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. Membrane. Associated to membranes via binding to ATP6AP2. - Information by UniProt

SimpleStep ELISA technology allows the formation of the antibody-antigen complex in one single step, reducing assay time to 90 minutes. Add samples or standards and antibody mix to wells all at once, incubate, wash, and add your final substrate. See protocol for a detailed step-by-step guide.

Standard Curve comparison between human Renin SimpleStep ELISA kit and traditional ELISA kit from leading competitor. SimpleStep ELISA kit shows increased sensitivity.
-
The Renin standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
-
The concentrations of Renin were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Renin standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 75%, plasma (EDTA) 75%, plasma (citrate) 75%, and plasma (heparin) 75%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Renin concentration was determined to be 528 pg/mL in serum, 482 pg/mL in plasma (EDTA), 430 pg/mL in plasma (citrate)and 460 pg/mL in plasma (heparin).
-
The concentrations of Renin were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Renin standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: urine 37.5%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Renin concentration was determined to be 2,514 pg/mL in urine.
-
Interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Renin concentration in neat serum was determined to be 796 pg/mL with a range of 126 – 1,757 pg/mL.
