Fonction: The AssayMax™ Canine RBP4 ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for detection of canine RBP4 in plasma, serum, urine, and cell culture samples. This assay employs a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay that measures canine RBP4 in less than 4 hours. A polyclonal antibody specific for canine RBP4 has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microplate with removable strips. Canine RBP4 in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for canine RBP4, 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. MIX Diluent Concentrate (10x): If crystals have formed in the concentrate, mix gently until the crystals have completely dissolved. Dilute the MIX Diluent Concentrate 1:10 with reagent grade water. Store for up to 30 days at 2-8 °C. Canine RBP4 Standard: Reconstitute the 50 ng of Canine RBP4 Standard with 1 mL of MIX Diluent to generate a 50 ng/mL standard stock solution. 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 standard stock solution (50 ng/mL) 1:2 with MIX Diluent to produce 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1.563, and 0.781 ng/mL solutions. MIX Diluent serves as the zero standard (0 ng/mL). Any remaining solution should be frozen at -20 °C and used within 30 days.

Procédure de l'essai:

Prepare all reagents, standard solutions, and samples as instructed. Bring all reagents to room temperature before use. The assay is performed at room temperature (20-25 °C). Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame and return them immediately to the foil pouch with desiccants inside. Reseal the pouch 5 securely to minimize exposure to water vapor and store in a vacuum desiccator. Add 50 l of Canine RBP4 Standard or sample per well. Cover wells with a sealing tape and incubate for 2 hours. Start the timer after the last addition. Wash five times with 200 l of Wash Buffer manually. Invert the plate each time and decant the contents, hit 4-5 times on absorbent material to completely remove the liquid. If using a machine, wash six times with 300 l of Wash Buffer and then invert the plate, decanting the contents, hit 4-5 times on absorbent material to completely remove the liquid. Add 50 l of Biotinylated Canine RBP4 Antibody to each well and incubate for 1 hour. Wash the microplate as described above. Add 50 l 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. Add 50 l of Chromogen Substrate per well and incubate for 10 minutes or till the optimal blue color density develops. Gently tap plate to ensure thorough mixing and break the bubbles in the well with pipette tip. Add 50 l 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 duplicate or 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 (OD) 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.

Sujet: Serum retinol-binding protein (RBP4), secreted by the liver and adipocytes, is implicated in systemic insulin resistance. RBP4 transports retinol and circulates in the plasma by binding to the larger transthyretin (TTR) homotetramer, forming a protein complex that reduces renal clearance of RBP4. In insulin-resistant ob/ob mice, urinary fractional excretion of RBP4 was reduced, which is consistent with increased retention, while TTR level is elevated (1). RBP4 is encoded by the RBP4 gene which maps to chromosome 10q23-q24 (2, 3). Transgenic overexpression of human RBP4 or injection of recombinant RBP4 in normal mice causes insulin resistance. Conversely, genetic deletion of RBP4 enhances insulin sensitivity. Increasing serum RBP4 induces hepatic expression of the gluconeogenic enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and impairs insulin signaling in muscle tissue (4). Expression of RBP4 is induced in adipose tissue as a consequence of decreased glucose transporter GLUT4 expression.
