Reactivity in human and rat heart tissue extracts.
Other species reactivity was determined by measuring a 20 g/mL extract load of human and rat heart tissue extract samples, interpolating the protein concentrations from the human standard curve, and expressing the interpolated concentrations as a percentage of the protein concentration in the human heart tissue extract. Cross-reactivity was determined to be 100% in rat heart extract. Due to 100% amino acids sequence identity of rat and mouse Cytochrome C, the same cross-reactivity can be assumed for mouse Cytochrome C.

Interpolated concentrations of native Cytochrome C in human extract samples. The concentrations of Cytochrome C were measured in three different dilutions in duplicate and interpolated from the Cytochrome C standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted in ng of Cytochrome C per mg of extract (mean +/- SD, n=3). Cytochrome C concentration was determined to be 1716 ng/mg heart tissue extract, 670.1 ng/mg in colon tissue extract, 1689 ng/mg in skeletal muscle tissue extract, 924.2 ng/mg in HepG2 cell extract, 1658 ng/mg in PC-3 cell extract, and 386.2 ng/mg in THP-1 cell extract samples.

Interpolated concentrations of native Cytochrome C in HepG2 cell extract, PC-3 cell extract, and THP-1 cell extract samples based on a 50 μg/mL extract load. The concentrations of Cytochrome C were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the Cytochrome C standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Cytochrome C concentration was determined to be 45.64 ng/mL in HepG2 cell extract, 81.23 ng/mL in PC-3 cell extract, and 19.01 ng/mL in THP-1 cell extract.

ELISA - Human Cytochrome C ELISA Kit (AB221832)
Comparison Cytochrome C distribution in subcellular fractions derived from 3.7x103 HeLa cells and whole cells cultured in the presence (treated) or absence (untreated) of 1 μM staurosporine for 4 hours. Cells were collected directly after treatment and subcellular fractions were prepared using a cell fractionation kit (ab109719). Fractions were processed as described in section 11.10. and assayed. The concentrations of Cytochrome C were measured in three different dilutions of the fraction samples in duplicates and interpolated from the Cytochrome C standard curve. The interpolated values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=3). The mean Cytochrome C concentration was determined be 171.4 ng/mL in the treated cytosol fraction, 242.8 in the treated mitochondrial fraction, 562.0 in the treated whole cell sample, 407.2 ng/mL in the untreated mitochondrial fraction, and 558.9 ng/mL in the untreated whole cell sample. Cytochrome C was not detectable in the untreated cytosol fraction and in both nuclear fractions.

Interpolated concentrations of native Cytochrome C in human heart tissue extract based on a 20 μg/mL extract load, colon tissue extract based on a 50 μg/mL extract load, and skeletal muscle tissue extract based on a 25 μg/mL extract load. The concentrations of Cytochrome C were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the Cytochrome C standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Cytochrome C concentration was determined to be 35.41 ng/mL in heart tissue extract, 32.74 ng/mL in colon tissue extract, and 43.12 ng/mL in skeletal muscle tissue extract.

Product details
Human Cytochrome C ELISA Kit (ab221832) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Cytochrome C protein in cell culture extracts and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human Cytochrome C with 1100 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.
Cytochrome C is 11 kDa mitochondrial intermembrane space electron carrier protein. The oxidized form of the cytochrome C heme group can accept an electron from the heme group of the cytochrome c1 subunit of cytochrome reductase. Cytochrome C then transfers this electron to the cytochrome oxidase complex, the final protein carrier in the mitochondrial electron-transport chain. Cytochrome C also plays a role in apoptosis. Suppression of the anti-apoptotic members or activation of the pro-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family leads to altered mitochondrial outer membrane permeability resulting in release of cytochrome C into the cytosol. Binding of cytochrome C to Apaf-1 triggers the activation of caspase-9, which then accelerates apoptosis by activating other caspases.

Biological function summary
Cytochrome c contributes to the process of oxidative phosphorylation within mitochondria. It is not only an important electron carrier but it also plays a significant role in apoptosis. In the event of cellular stress cytochrome c releases into the cytosol and forms part of the apoptosome complex. This apoptosome activation leads to the caspase cascade driving programmed cell death. Therefore cytochrome C serves as both a mediator of energy production and a regulator of apoptosis.
Pathways
Cytochrome c is integral to the mitochondrial electron transport chain and apoptotic pathways. It interacts with proteins in these pathways such as cytochrome c oxidase in oxidative phosphorylation and Apaf-1 during apoptosis. The electron transport chain's function is dependent on the efficient transfer of electrons facilitated by cytochrome c ensuring ATP production in cellular respiration.
