Interpolated concentrations of native MCP4 in human serum, plasma (citrate), and plasma (EDTA) samples. The concentrations of MCP4 were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the MCP4 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows : serum 100%, plasma (citrate) 100%, and plasma (EDTA) 100%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean MCP4 concentration was determined to be 35.0 pg/mL in serum, 56.2 pg/mL in plasma (citrate), and 36.6 pg/mL in plasma (EDTA).

Product details

Human MCP4 ELISA Kit (ab239426) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of MCP4 protein in edta plasma, serum, cell culture supernatant, and cit plasma. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human MCP4 with 1.2 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.

MCP4 also known as CCL13 is a chemokine with a molecular mass of approximately 11 kDa. It plays a critical role in attracting immune cells to sites of inflammation. MCP4 achieves this through its interaction with G protein-coupled receptors particularly CCR2 and CCR3. The protein is primarily expressed in tissues involved in immune responses including lymph nodes spleen and bone marrow. It exhibits high expression levels at sites of allergic inflammation suggesting a specific role in these processes.
Biological function summary

MCP4 functions by mediating the recruitment of monocytes eosinophils and T lymphocytes. It is not part of a larger protein complex but rather operates as part of the chemokine signaling family. MCP4 is particularly active in coordinating responses to allergens and pathogens therefore highlighting its importance in the body's defense mechanisms. As a member of the C-C motif chemokine family it shares structural characteristics with other chemokines like CCL11 which participate in similar immune cell trafficking functions.

Pathways

MCP4 is deeply involved in inflammatory and immune pathways specifically the chemokine signaling pathway and the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway. MCP4 guides immune cells allowing them to respond effectively to cytokine signals ensuring their migration to necessary sites. Through the chemokine signaling pathway it collaborates with related chemokines like CCL5 to enhance immune responses. Its interaction with these pathways highlights its role in both routine immunity and inflammatory responses positioning it as an important player in maintaining immune homeostasis.

MCP4 correlates with conditions such as asthma and allergic rhinitis. Both of these conditions involve chronic inflammation where MCP4's role becomes more pronounced. In asthma the protein contributes to the recruitment of eosinophils and other immune cells that drive the inflammatory processes. MCP4 interactions with proteins like CCR3 are significant in exacerbating symptoms of allergic disorders making it an important target for therapeutic research aimed at modulating inflammatory responses in these diseases.

Product protocols

Target data

Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils, but not neutrophils. Signals through CCR2B and CCR3 receptors. Plays a role in the accumulation of leukocytes at both sides of allergic and non-allergic inflammation. May be involved in the recruitment of monocytes into the arterial wall during the disease process of atherosclerosis. May play a role in the monocyte attraction in tissues chronically exposed to exogenous pathogens.
