Product overview
Rat CXCL1 ELISA Kit (GRO alpha) (ab219044) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CXCL1 (GRO alpha) protein in cell culture extracts, cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Rat CXCL1 with 1.61 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
CXCL1 (previously called GRO1 oncogene) is a member of the CXC family of chemokines. CXCL1 expression is reported in lymphocytes such as macrophages and neutrophils as well as epithelial cells. It plays a role in neutrophil chemotaxis. CXCL1 is involved in spinal cord development via inhibition of oligodendrocyte precursor migration as well angiogenesis, arteriogenesis, inflammation, wound healing and tumorigenesis.
Rat CXCL2 and CXCL3 share 65% and 64% sequence homology with rat CXCL1, respectively. Additionally, mouse CXCL1 is 89% homologous with rat CXCL1.

Function
Has chemotactic activity for neutrophils. May play a role in inflammation and exerts its effects on endothelial cells in an autocrine fashion. In vitro, the processed forms GRO-alpha(4-73), GRO-alpha(5-73) and GRO-alpha(6-73) show a 30-fold higher chemotactic activity. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family. -
Post-translational
modificationsN-terminal processed forms GRO-alpha(4-73), GRO-alpha(5-73) and GRO-alpha(6-73) are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from peripheral blood monocytes. -

The concentrations of CXCL1 (GRO alpha) were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the CXCL1 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 50%, plasma (citrate) 50%, plasma (EDTA) 50%, and plasma (heparin) 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean CXCL1 concentration was determined to be 930.66 pg/mL in neat serum, 756.22 pg/mL in neat plasma (citrate), 674.04 pg/mL in neat plasma (EDTA), and 891.86 pg/mL in neat plasma (heparin).

The concentrations of CXCL1 (GRO alpha) were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the CXCL1 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: rat lung supernatant 1% and rat spleen supernatant 25%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean CXCL1 concentration was determined to be 57,709.68 pg/mL in neat rat lung supernatant and 822.66 pg/mL in neat rat spleen supernatant. The rat lung supernatant was cultured for six days in RPMI base media with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) plus 5 µg/mL of LPS. The rat spleen supernatant was cultured for three days in RPMI base media with 10% FBS.
