MPO, Human, ELISA Kit
- Supplier: Hycult Biotech
Product Description
- Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a glycoprotein with a alpha2beta2 heteromultimer expressed in all cells of the myeloid linage. MPO is abundantly present in azurophilic granules of polymorphonuclear neutrophils. It is an important enzyme used during phagocytic lysis of engulfed foreign particles which takes part in the defense of the organism through production of hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a potent oxidant. MPO is rapidly released by activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils. Involvement of MPO has been described in numerous diseases such as atherosclerosis, lung cancer, Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis. Autoimmune antibodies to MPO are involved in Wegener's disease. Since the discovery of MPO deficiency, initially regarded as rare and restricted to patients suffering from severe infections, MPO has attracted more clinical attention. _x000D_
- The classical MPO assay is an enzymatic assay for activity of MPO. This classical MPO assay is hampered by the presence of inhibitory compounds in tissue homogenates and plasma. In this type of assays spiking often gives unreliable results. The human MPO ELISA is not influenced by inhibitors of the enzyme activity.
- The human MPO ELISA kit is to be used for the in vitro quantitative determination of human_x000D_
- MPO in plasma, sputum and cell culture supernatant samples.
