• Target :

  May play a role in the regulation of extra-urea cycle arginine metabolism and also in down-regulation of nitric oxide synthesis. Extrahepatic arginase functions to regulate L-arginine bioavailability to nitric oxid synthase (NOS) . Arginine metabolism is a critical regulator of innate and adaptive immune responses. Seems to be involved in negative regulation of the survival capacity of activated CD4 (+) and CD8 (+) T cells (PubMed:27745970) . May suppress inflammation-related signaling in asthmatic airway epithelium (PubMed:27214549) . May contribute to the immune evasion of H.pylori by restricting M1 macrophage activation and polyamine metabolism (By similarity) . In fetal dendritic cells may play a role in promoting immune suppression and T cell TNF-alpha production during gestation (PubMed:28614294) . Regulates RPS6KB1 signaling, which promotes endothelial cell senescence and inflammation and implicates NOS3/eNOS dysfunction (PubMed:22928666) . Can inhibit endothelial autophagy independently of its enzymatic activity implicating mTORC2 signaling (PubMed:25484082) . Involved in vascular smooth muscle cell senescence and apoptosis independently of its enzymatic activity (PubMed:23832324) . Since NOS is found in the penile corpus cavernosum smooth muscle, the clitoral corpus cavernosum and the vagina, arginase-2 plays a role in both male and female sexual arousal (PubMed:12859189) .

• Type :

  ELISA Kit

• Applications :

  Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent assay-Sandwich

• Detection Method :

  Colorimetric

• Assay Principle :

  The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Arginase II (Arg2) . Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Arginase II (Arg2) . Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Arginase II (Arg2), biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm +/- 10nm. The concentration of Arginase II (Arg2) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
