Product overview
Mouse VEGF R3 ELISA Kit (FLT4) (ab203367) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of VEGF R3 (FLT4) protein in cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse VEGF R3 (FLT4) with 17.97 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.

Notes
The VEGF receptor family includes three members VEGF R1, VEGF R2, and VEGF R3 (FLT4). These receptors have a characteristic structure that includes 7 Ig-like domains in the extracellular domain and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain with a long kinase insert region. VEGF R3 is a tyrosine protein kinase that acts as a cell-surface receptor for VEGFC and VEGFD. It plays an essential role in adult lymphangiogenesis, and in the development of the vascular network and cardiovascular system during embryonic development. VEGF R3 promotes proliferation, survival and migration of endothelial cells, and regulates angiogenic sprouting. Signaling by activated VEGF R3 leads to enhanced production of VEGFC and VEGFA, creating a positive feedback loop that enhances FLT4 signaling.

Relevance
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are a family of closely related growth factors having a conserved pattern of eight cysteine esidues and sharing common VEGF receptors. VEGFs stimulate the proliferation of endothelial cells, induce angiogenesis, and increase vascular permeability in both large and small vessels. The mitogenic activity of VEGFs appears to be mediated by specific VEGF receptors. VEGF Receptor 3 is one of the five receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) (VEGF Receptor 1/Flt1, VEGF Receptor 2/KDR/Flk1, VEGF Receptor 3/Flt4, tie1 and tek/tie2) whose expression is almost exclusively restricted to endothelial cells. -

Titration of mouse serum, citrate plasma, heparin plasma, and EDTA plasma within the working range of the assay.
The 1X dilution is 5% for mouse serum, and 2.5% for each of the plasmas. Interpolated data values (mean +/- SD, n = 2) are graphed.

Titration of mouse stimulated (100 ng/mL LPS + 50 ng/mL PMA, 3 days (+)) lung supernatant, and unstimulated (-) lung and liver cell culture supernatants within the working range of the assay.
The 1X dilution is 50.0% for the lung supernatants, and 25.0% for the liver supernatant. Interpolated data values (mean +/- SD, n = 2) are graphed.
