Product details

Human CRF SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CRF protein in human serum, plasma, saliva and cell culture supernatant. Quantitate Human CRF with 1.204 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Supplementary information

Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) also known as corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a peptide hormone involved in the stress response. This protein with a mass of approximately 41 kDa is predominantly produced in the hypothalamus and later secreted into the bloodstream. CRF plays an important role in activating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis stimulating the secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from the anterior pituitary gland. Its expression extends beyond the hypothalamus being present in peripheral tissues such as the adrenal glands and gastrointestinal tract.
Biological function summary

Corticotropin-releasing factor functions as a central coordinator of the body's response to stress. CRF engages several receptors including CRF receptors type 1 and 2 which mediate its actions. It forms part of a larger complex involving several other binding proteins that regulate its availability and receptor affinity. By interacting with these receptors CRF modulates diverse physiological processes such as immune responses and energy balance ensuring the maintenance of homeostasis under stress conditions.

Pathways

Corticotropin-releasing factor orchestrates important signaling within the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the stress response pathways. CRF is pivotal in the activation of various signaling cascades that influence the production of glucocorticoids like cortisol. Within these pathways CRF interacts closely with proteins such as ACTH which acts downstream of CRF to potentiate adrenal corticosteroid synthesis. Another related cascade involves CRF in neuroendocrine signaling affecting neurotransmitter release and influencing behaviors related to stress and anxiety.

Corticotropin-releasing factor is heavily implicated in depression and anxiety disorders. Alterations in CRF expression and receptor sensitivity have been associated with the pathophysiology of these conditions. For instance abnormal CRF signaling can lead to elevated stress hormone levels contributing to mood disorders. CRF also connects to proteins like the glucocorticoid receptor influencing how the body processes stress-related hormones and impacting the development and progression of stress-related psychiatric disorders.
