Product Summary for Human Gas6 Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human Gas6 immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure human Gas6 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, and urine. It contains NS0-expressed recombinant human Gas6 and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural Gas6 showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring human Gas6.

Recovery for Human Gas6 Quantikine ELISA Kit

The recovery of Gas6 spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated. Samples were diluted prior to assay.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Supernates (n=4) 106 99-110
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 98 83-111
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 102 95-111
Serum (n=4) 100 90-109
Urine (n=4) 96 84-104

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of human Gas6 were serially diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay. Samples were

Background: Gas6

Gas6 (Growth Arrest Specific 6) is a secreted protein that contains an extensively gamma-carboxylated N-terminal Gla domain and is dependent upon vitamin K for activity. Gas6 signals through the receptors Axl, Dtk/Tyro3, and Mer and is inhibited by shed soluble forms of Axl and Mer. Gas6 protects cells from stress-induced apoptosis and promotes phagocytosis of apoptotic cell debris, promotes platelet activation but inhibits inflammatory cytokine production, and inhibits VEGF-induced angiogenesis, and regulates tumor cell invasiveness.
