Product details

Human Complement C3b ELISA Kit ab195461 is a sandwich ELISA to measure Human Complement C3b in serum, plasma, cerebral spinal fluid (CSF), saliva, urine, milk with a sensitivity of 67 pg/ml.

How the assay works

A Complement C3b specific antibody has been precoated onto 96-well plates and blocked. Standards or test samples are added to the wells and subsequently a Complement C3b specific biotinylated detection antibody is added and then followed by washing with wash buffer. Streptavidin-Peroxidase Conjugate is added and unbound conjugates are washed away with wash buffer. TMB is then used to visualize Streptavidin-Peroxidase enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by Streptavidin-Peroxidase to produce a blue color product that changes into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is directly proportional to the amount of Complement C3b captured in plate.
The entire kit may be stored at -20°C for long term storage before reconstitution - Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Assay Specificity

Our ELISA kits are rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility. Please check the protocol booklet for more details

C3 also known as complement C3 or anti C3b is a central protein in the complement system with an approximate molecular mass of 187 kDa. This protein exists in blood plasma as an inactive precursor and is produced mainly in the liver. C3 gets activated through cleavage into two fragments C3a and C3b. The functional fragment C3b covalently attaches to pathogen surfaces through a process called opsonization allowing it to 'tag' pathogens for destruction by immune cells.
Biological function summary

Complement C3b plays an integral role in innate immunity. C3b is a part of the complement cascade forming complexes such as C3bBb which acts as a convertase in the amplification of the complement response. Through opsonization C3b promotes the binding and uptake of pathogens by phagocytes therefore enhancing immune defense.

Pathways

C3b integrates into the alternative and classical complement pathways. In these pathways C3b binds with factors like B and D contributing to the formation of the C5 convertase and progressing to the membrane attack complex. These interactions involve proteins such as C5 and Factor B essential for the effective destruction of pathogens and the clearance of immune complexes.

Complement C3b shows associations with diseases involving improper immune regulation such as atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Mutations affecting C3b's interactions with regulatory proteins such as Factor H can lead to uncontrolled complement activation which contributes to the pathology of these diseases. Understanding these interactions provides insights into therapeutic targets for managing complement-related diseases.

Target data

C3 plays a central role in the activation of the complement system. Its processing by C3 convertase is the central reaction in both classical and alternative complement pathways. After activation C3b can bind covalently, via its reactive thioester, to cell surface carbohydrates or immune aggregates.. Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C3, C3a anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. In chronic inflammation, acts as a chemoattractant for neutrophils (By similarity). It induces the contraction of smooth muscle, increases vascular permeability and causes histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes.. C3-beta-c. Acts as a chemoattractant for neutrophils in chronic inflammation.. Acylation stimulating protein. Adipogenic hormone that stimulates triglyceride (TG) synthesis and glucose transport in adipocytes, regulating fat storage and playing a role in postprandial TG clearance. Appears to stimulate TG synthesis via activation of the PLC, MAPK and AKT signaling pathways. Ligand for C5AR2. Promotes the phosphorylation, ARRB2-mediated internalization and recycling of C5AR2 (PubMed : 10432298, PubMed : 15833747, PubMed : 16333141, PubMed : 19615750, PubMed : 2909530, PubMed : 8376604, PubMed : 9059512).
