Verwendungszweck: The OmniKine? Human sCD40 Ligand ELISA Kit contains the components necessary for quantitative determination of natural or recombinant Human sCD40 Ligand concentrations within any experimental sample including cell lysates, serum and plasma. This particular immunoassay utilizes the quantitative technique of a "Sandwich" Enzyme- Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) where the target protein (antigen) is bound in a "sandwich" format by the primary capture antibodies coated to each well-bottom and the secondary detection antibodies added subsequently by the investigator. The capture antibodies coated to the bottom of each well are specific for a particular epitope on Human sCD40 Ligand while the user-added detection antibodies bind to epitopes on the captured target protein. Amid each step of the procedure, a series of wash steps must be performed to ensure the elimination of non-specific binding between proteins to other proteins or to the solid phase. After incubation and "sandwiching" of the target antigen, a peroxidase enzyme is conjugated to the constant heavy chain of the secondary antibody (either covalently or via Avidin/Streptavidin-Biotin interactions), allowing for a colorimetric reaction to ensue upon substrate addition. When the substrate TMB (3, 3', 5, 5'-Tetramethylbenzidine) is added, the reaction catalyzed by peroxidase yields a blue color that is representative of the antigen concentration. Upon sufficient color development, the reaction can be terminated through addition of Stop Solution (2 N Sulfuric Acid) where the color of the solution will turn yellow. The absorbance of each well can then be read by a spectrophotometer, allowing for generation of a standard curve and subsequent determination of protein concentration.

Plattentyp: Pre-coated

Protokoll: This particular immunoassay utilizes the quantitative technique of a Sandwich Enzyme- Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) where the target protein (antigen) is bound in a sandwich format by the primary capture antibodies coated to each well-bottom and the secondary detection antibodies added subsequently by the investigator. The capture antibodies coated to the bottom of each well are specific for a particular epitope on the Human sCD40 Ligand cytokine while the user-added detection antibodies bind to epitopes on the captured target protein. Amid each step of the procedure, a series of wash steps must be performed to ensure the elimination of non- specific binding between proteins to other proteins or to the solid phase. After incubation and sandwiching of the target antigen, a peroxidase enzyme is conjugated to the constant heavy chain of the secondary antibody (either covalently or via Avidin/Streptavidin-Biotin interactions), allowing for a colorimetric reaction to ensue upon substrate addition.

Aufbereitung der Proben:

If samples are to be used within 24 hours, aliquot and store at 4 °C. If samples are to be used over a long period of time, aliquot and store between -20 °C and -80 °C, depending on the duration of storage.
Note: Samples containing a visible precipitate or pellet must be clarified prior to use in the assay.
Caution: Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles to prevent loss of biological activity of proteins in experimental samples.

• Cell Lysate and Supernatants:
  Remove large cell components via centrifugation and perform the assay. Cell lysates and supernatants require a dilution using Assay Diluent. A serial dilution may be performed to determine a suitable dilution factor for the sample. For future use of the sample, follow the sample storage guidelines stated above.
• Serum:
  Allow samples to clot in a serum separator tube (SST) for 30 minutes. After sufficient clotting, centrifuge at 1000 x g for 15 minutes and remove serum from SST in preparation for the assay. Serum samples require at least a 1:50 dilution using Assay Diluent. For future use of the sample, follow the storage guidelines above.
• Plasma:
  Use heparin, citrate or EDTA as an anticoagulant to gather plasma from original biological sample. After collection of the plasma, centrifuge for 15 minutes at 1000 x g. This step must be performed within 30 minutes of plasma collection. Plasma samples require at least a 1:50 dilution using Assay Diluent. Afterwards, perform the assay or for future use of the sample, follow the storage guidelines stated above.

Testdurchführung:

Note: If possible, all incubation steps should be performed on an orbital shaker to equilibrate solutions when added to the microplate wells. Also, all provided solutions should be at ambient temperature prior to use.
Note: Avoid adding solutions into wells at an angle, always keep pipette tip perpendicular to plate bottom.

Reconstitution of Provided Materials:

1. Reconstitute the Biotin-Conjugated Detection Antibody in 67 µL of ddH₂O for a concentration of 180 µg/ml.
2. Reconstitute the Protein Standard in 100 µL of ddH₂O for a concentration of 340 ng/ml.
3. Dilute the 50 mL of 10x Wash Buffer in 450 mL of ddH2O for 500 mL of 1x Wash Buffer.

Addition of Known Standard and Unknown Sample to Immunoassay:

The OmniKine™ Human CD163 ELISA Kit allows for the detection and quantification of endogenous levels of natural and/or recombinant Human CD163 proteins

Ergebnisberechnung:

Generation of Standard Curve and Interpretation of Data
1. Average the duplicate or triplicate readings for each standard, control and sample and subtract the average zero standard optical density.
2. Generate a standard curve by using Microsoft Excel or other computer software capable of establishing a 4- Parameter Logistic (4-PL) curve fit. If using Excel or an alternative graphing tool, plot the average optical density values in absorbance units (y-axis) against the known standard concentrations in pg/ml (x-axis). Note: Only use the values in which a noticeable gradient can be established. Afterwards, generate a best fit curve or trend-line through the plotted points via regression analysis.

Hintergrund: Human sCD40 Ligand, also known as Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 5, is a 149 amino acid cytokine protein encoded by the CD40LG gene located at locus Xq26 on the X chromosome. The soluble CD40 ligand is generated when the membrane form of the CD40 ligand undergoes proteolytic processing to remove the first 112 residues from the N-terminal region. The homotrimeric soluble CD40 ligand Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL-4, it is involved in immunoglobulin class switching. Moreover, release of soluble CD40L from platelets is partially regulated by GP IIb/IIIa, actin polymerization, and the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) inhibitor-sensitive pathway. Defects in CD40LG are the cause of X-linked immunodeficiency with hyper-IgM type 1 (HIGM1), also known as X-linked hyper IgM syndrome (XHIM). HIGM1 is an immunoglobulin isoform switch defect characterized by elevated concentrations of serum IgM and decreased amounts of all other isoforms. Affected males present at an early age (usually within the first year of life) recurrent bacterial and opportunistic infections, including Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia and intractable diarrhea due to cryptosporidium infection.
