Plaque: Pre-coated

Protocole: This assay employs a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique that measures FGF21 in less than 5 hours. A polyclonal antibody specific for FGF21 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. FGF21 in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and a biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for FGF21, which is recognized by a streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate. All unbound material is then washed away and a peroxidase enzyme substrate is added. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Préparation des réactifs:

Freshly dilute all reagents and bring all reagents to room temperature before use. If crystals have formed in the concentrate, mix gently until the crystals have completely dissolved. MIx Diluent Concentrate (10x): Dilute MIx Diluent Concentrate 1:10 with reagent grade water. Store for up to 1 month at 2-8°C. Standard Curve: Reconstitute the 2 ng of Human FGF21 Standard with 1 ml of MIx Diluent to generate a stock solution of 2 ng/ml. Allow the standard to sit for 10 minutes with gentle agitation prior to making dilutions. Prepare duplicate or triplicate standard points by serially diluting the FGF21 standard solution (2 ng/ml) 1:2 with MIx Diluent to produce 1, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125, 0.0625, and 0.0313 ng/ml solutions. MIx Diluent serves as the zero standard (0 ng/ml). Any remaining solution should be frozen at -20°C.

Prélèvement de l'échantillon: Plasma: Collect plasma using one-tenth volume of 0.1 M sodium citrate as an anticoagulant. Centrifuge samples at 2000 x g for 10 minutes and assay. Dilute samples 1:2 with MIx Diluent. Store the remaining samples at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. (EDTA or Heparin can also be used as anticoagulant.) Serum: Samples should be collected into a serum separator tube. After clot formation, centrifuge samples at 2000 x g for 10 minutes. Remove serum and assay. Dilute samples 1:2 into MIx Diluent. Store serum at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles Cell Culture Supernatants: Centrifuge cell culture media at 2000 x g for 10 minutes to remove debris. Collect supernatants and assay. Store the remaining samples at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles 2

Procédure de l'essai:

Prepare all reagents, working standards and samples as instructed. Bring all reagents to room temperature before use. The assay is performed at room temperature (20 - 30 °C). Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame and return them immediately to the foil pouch with desiccant inside. Reseal the pouch securely to minimize exposure to water vapor and store in a vacuum desiccator. Add 50 µL of Standard or sample per well. Cover wells and incubate for two hours. Start the timer after the last sample addition. Wash five times with 200 µL of Wash Buffer manually. Invert the plate each time and decant the contents, hit it 4-5 times on absorbent paper towel to completely remove the liquid. If using a machine wash six times with 300 µL of Wash Buffer and then invert the plate, decant the contents, hit it 4-5 times on absorbent paper towel to completely remove the liquid. Add 50 µL of Biotinylated FGF21 Antibody to each well and incubate for two hours. Wash the microplate as described above. Add 50 µL of Streptavidin-Peroxidase Conjugate per well and incubate for 30 minutes. Turn on the microplate reader and set up the program in advance. Wash the microplate as described above. 3 Add 50 µL of Chromogen Substrate per well and incubate for about 10 minutes or till the optimal blue color density develops. Gently tap the plate to ensure thorough mixing and break the bubbles in the well with pipette tip. Add 50 µL of Stop Solution to each well. The color will change from blue to yellow. Read the absorbance on a microplate reader at a wavelength of 450 nm immediately. If wavelength correction is available, subtract readings at 570 nm from those at 450 nm to correct optical imperfections. Otherwise, read the plate at 450 nm only. Please note that some unstable black particles may be generated at high concentration points after stopping the reaction for about 10 minutes, which will reduce the readings.

Calcul des résultats:

Calculate the mean value of the triplicate readings for each standard and sample. To generate a Standard Curve, plot the graph using the standard concentrations on the x-axis and the corresponding mean 450 nm absorbance on the y-axis. The best-fit line can be determined by regression analysis using log-log or four-parameter logistic curve-fit. Determine the unknown sample concentration from the Standard Curve and multiply the value by the dilution factor. Standard Curve The curve is provided for illustration only. A standard curve should be generated each time the assay is performed.

Précision du teste: Intra-assay and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 4.8 % and 7.4% respectively.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Stockage

Conseil sur la manipulation: Prepare all reagents (working diluent buffer, wash buffer, standards, biotinylated- antibody, and SP conjugate) as instructed, prior to running the assay. Prepare all samples prior to running the assay. The dilution factors for the samples are suggested in this protocol. However, the user should determine the optimal dilution factor. Spin down the SP conjugate vial and the biotinylated-antibody vial before opening and using contents. 1 The kit should not be used beyond the expiration date.

Sujet: Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a member of endocrine FGF subfamily, along with FGF19 and FGF23. The secreted human FGF21 is expressed in liver, pancreas, and white adipose tissue. It contains 209 amino acids in the precursor and 181 amino acids in the mature protein with a molecular mass of about 20 kDa, and has 75% homology with mouse FGF-21. FGF21 signals through cell-surface tyrosine kinase FGF receptors complexed with a cofactor - Klotho. FGF21 is a novel metabolic regulator involved in glucose metabolism, lipolysis, and ketogenesis and triglyceride clearance, growth hormone signaling, and metabolic diseases. In rodent models of diabetes, it stimulates glucose uptake in adipocytes, protects animals from diet- induced obesity, and lowers blood glucose and triglyceride. Serum FGF21 levels are increased in patients with metabolic diseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, obesity, Cushing's syndrome, HIV-1-induced lipodystrophy, and chronic kidney hemodialysis (5-7). Conversely, circulating FGF21 concentrations were reduced in subjects with anorexia nervosa. FGF21 is a biomarker for metabolic diseases and a candidate for the treatment of insulin resistance.
