Product Summary for Mouse CCL2/JE/MCP-1 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The Quantikine Mouse/Rat CCL2/MCP-1 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure MCP-1 in mouse or rat cell culture supernates and serum. It contains E. coli-expressed mouse MCP-1 and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This Immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate recombinant mouse MCP-1. Results obtained using natural mouse or rat MCP-1 showed dose response curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine mouse kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural MCP-1.

Sample Values
Serum - Mouse and rat samples were evaluated for the presence of MCP-1 in this assay.
*Samples were diluted prior to assay.
| Mean (pg/mL) | Range (pg/mL) | Standard Deviation (pg/mL) | |
| Mouse serum* (n=40) | 130 | 50-294 | 47 |
| Rat serum* (n=10) | 1346 | 768-1584 | 278 |
Cell Culture Supernates:
Mouse heart tissue was cut into 1-2 mm pieces and cultured in 10 mL of RPMI supplemented
with 10% fetal bovine serum for 7 days. An aliquot of the cell culture supernate was removed,
assayed for levels of mouse MCP-1, and measured 3000 pg/mL.
L-929 mouse fibroblasts (1 x 105
cells/mL) were cultured for 3 days in MEM containing
L-glutamine and 10% equine serum. An aliquot of the cell culture supernate was removed,
assayed for levels of mouse MCP-1 and measured 13,000 pg/mL.
Rat splenocytes were cultured for 22 hours in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine
serum. The cells were stimulated with 10 μg/mL of PHA and 10 ng/mL of PMA. An aliquot of the
cell culture supernate was removed, assayed for levels of rat MCP-1 and measured 891 pg/mL.
Precision
Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.

Recovery for Mouse CCL2/JE/MCP-1 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of MCP-1 spiked to three levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Mouse Cell Culture Supernates (n=6) | 104 | 91-119 |
| Mouse Serum (n=9) | 99 | 89-113 |
| Rat Cell Culture Supernates (n=4) | 109 | 103-115 |
| Rat Serum (n=4) | 109 | 103-116 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of MCP-1 in each matrix were diluted with Calibrator Diluent and then assayed.

Background: CCL2/JE/MCP-1
CCL2/JE/MCP-1, is a chemokine that binds the receptor CCR2 and induces the chemoattraction of mononuclear cells. It induces the activation of monocytes, NK cells, lymphocytes, and basophils. Additionally, CCL2 promotes Th2 polarization in CD4+ T cells, and CCL2-mediated recruitment of monocytes to sites of inflammation contributes to disease severity in atherosclerosis, multiple sclerosis, and allergic asthma. Endogenous proteolytic trimming of CCL2 at the N-terminus, including the N-terminal pyrrolidone carboxylic acid-modified glutamine, downregulates activity but not receptor binding.
