Application: Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), also known as macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1 (MIC-1), is a protein of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFb) superfamily. GDF-15 is a stress-induced cytokine and associated with hypoxia, inflammation and oxidative stress, it is also released from endothelial cells after stimulation with pro-inflammatory cytokines. Its levels are elevated in diseases such as acute respiratory distress syndrome, pulmonary hypertension and heart failure. GDF-15 is associated with cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and inflammatory diseases. GDF-15 may have a paracrine role in the modulation of adipose tissue function and body fat mass. GDF-15 is highly expressed in the placenta. GDF-15 is known to be involved in human embryo development and necessary for the maintenance of pregnancy.

This test kit is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The GM-CSF ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous GM-CSF. The assay recognizes human GM-CSF. An antibody specific for GM-CSF has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The GM-CSF protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another antibody specific for GM-CSF is added to detect the captured GM-CSF protein. For signal development, horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated antibody is added, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450nm.
