  • Product overview

    Fibronectin (FN) is a major component of the extracellular matrix and blood plasma, and is a specific ligand for several integrin adhesion receptors. Fibronectin plays an important role not only in cell adhesion and wound healing but also in embryogenesis and hematopoiesis. Fibronectin is over-expressed in cardiovascular disease states such as atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. Reduced levels of Fibronectin have been reported in patients with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC) and low concentrations appear to correlate with a poor prognosis.

    ab108850 Fibronectin Rat ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for the detection of Rat Fibronectin in plasma, serum, urine and cell culture supernatants. This assay employs a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique that measures Fibronectin in less than 4 hours. A polyclonal antibody specific for Fibronectin has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Fibronectin in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for Fibronectin, 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.

Properties

  • RelevanceFibronectins bind cell surfaces and various compounds including collagen, fibrin, heparin, DNA, and actin. Fibronectins are involved in cell adhesion, cell motility, opsonization, wound healing, and maintenance of cell shape. Anastellin binds fibronectin and induces fibril formation. This fibronectin polymer, named superfibronectin, exhibits enhanced adhesive properties. Both anastellin and superfibronectin inhibit tumor growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Anastellin activates p38 MAPK and inhibits lysophospholipid signaling. Mostly heterodimers or multimers of alternatively spliced variants, connected by 2 disulfide bonds near the carboxyl ends; to a lesser extent homodimers. Interacts with FBLN1, AMBP, TNR, LGALS3BP and COL13A1. Interacts with FBLN7 By similarity. Interacts with COMP. Interacts with S.aureus fnbA. Interacts with TNR; the interaction inhibits cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth By similarity. Interacts with FST3. Plasma FN (soluble dimeric form) is secreted by hepatocytes. Cellular FN (dimeric or cross-linked multimeric forms), made by fibroblasts, epithelial and other cell types, is deposited as fibrils in the extracellular matrix. Ugl-Y1, Ugl-Y2 and Ugl-Y3 are found in urine. Ugl-Y1, Ugl-Y2 and Ugl-Y3 are present in the urine from 0 to 17 years of age. Sulfated. It is not known whether both or only one of Thr-2064 and Thr-2065 are/is glycosylated. Forms covalent cross-links mediated by a transglutaminase, such as F13A or TGM2, between a glutamine and the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue, forming homopolymers and heteropolymers (e.g. fibrinogen-fibronectin, collagen-fibronectin heteropolymers). Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracelllular medium. Proteolytic processing produces the C-terminal NC1 peptide, anastellin. Defects in FN1 are the cause of glomerulopathy with fibronectin deposits type 2 (GFND2) [MIM:601894]; also known as familial glomerular nephritis with fibronectin deposits or fibronectin glomerulopathy. GFND is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal dominant disorder characterized clinically by proteinuria, microscopic hematuria, and hypertension that leads to end-stage renal failure in the second to fifth decade of life. Contains 12 fibronectin type-I domains. Contains 2 fibronectin type-II domains. Contains 16 fibronectin type-III domains.
