| Product Name | Hamster Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) ELISA Kit |
|---|---|
| Description | Lipoxins are a series of anti-inflammatory mediators. Lipoxins are short lived endogenously produced nonclassic eicosanoids whose appearance in inflammation signals the resolution of inflammation. They are abbreviated as LX, an acronym for lipoxygenase (LO) interaction products. At present two lipoxins have been identified; lipoxin A4 () and lipoxin B4 (LXB4).Lipoxins, as well as certain peptides, are high affinity ligands for the lipoxin A4 receptor (LXA4R), which was first identified based on sequence homology as the formyl peptide receptor like receptor (FPRL1). Lipoxin signaling through the LXA4R inhibits chemotaxis, transmigration, superoxide generation and NF-kappa B activation. Similarly to the leukotrienes, LXA4 will form the cysteinyl-lipoxins LXC4, LXD4 and LXE4. At subnanomolar concentrations, LXA4 and LXB4 inhibit leukotriene-stimulated interactions of human neutrophils and endothelial cells. This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Hamster (Mesocricetus; Cricetulus) LXA4. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Hamster (Mesocricetus; Cricetulus) LXA4 and analogues was observed. |
