Product overview
Human TWEAK ELISA Kit is designed for the quantitative determination of TWEAK in cell culture supernatants, plasma and serum samples.
This assay employs an antibody specific for human TWEAK coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and TWEAK present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed, and biotinylated anti-human TWEAK antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of TWEAK bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
This ELISA kit shows no cross-reactivity with the following cytokines tested: Human ANGPTL3, beta IG-H3, CA9, Cathepsin B, CD23, CHI3L1, CTLA-4, DKK-4, DPPIV, EDA-A2, Erythropoietin R, FGF-6, FGF-9, Gas 1, GITR, IGFBP-5, IL-1 F5 (FIL1 delta), IL-1 F6 (FIL1 epsilon), IL-1 F7 (FIL1 zeta), IL-1 F8 (FIL1 eta), IL-1 F9 (IL-1 H1), IL-1 F10 (IL-1HY2), IL-1 R5, IL-21 (IL-17C), IL-18, IL-20, IL-34, IL-5 R alpha, IL-10 R alpha, Layilin, Leptin R, Marapsin, Mer, MMP-7, P-Cadherin, Prostasin, PSMA (FOLH1), SIGIRR, TGF beta R3, Coagulation Factor III.

Function
Binds to FN14 and possibly also to TNRFSF12/APO3. Weak inducer of apoptosis in some cell types. Mediates NF-kappa-B activation. Promotes angiogenesis and the proliferation of endothelial cells. Also involved in induction of inflammatory cytokines. -
Tissue specificity
Highly expressed in adult heart, pancreas, skeletal muscle, brain, colon, small intestine, lung, ovary, prostate, spleen, lymph node, appendix and peripheral blood lymphocytes. Low expression in kidney, testis, liver, placenta, thymus and bone marrow. Also detected in fetal kidney, liver, lung and brain. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. -
Post-translational
modificationsThe soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing. -
Cellular localization
Secreted and Cell membrane. - Information by UniProt
