Product details
Abcam's Human NRG1 beta 1 ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Human NRG1 beta 1 in plasma, and cell culture supernatants. (Collect plasma using EDTA or citrate as an anticoagulant. Heparinized plasma is not recommended. Human NRG1 beta 1 concentration is pretty low in normal plasma, it may not be detected in this assay).
This assay employs an antibody specific for Human NRG1 beta 1 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and NRG1 beta 1 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of NRG1 beta 1 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
We have not been able to detect endogenous Human NRG1 beta 1 in normal serum with ab100614, only in serum spiked with Human NRG1 beta 1.
The ab100614 kit recognises the human HRG beta 1 protein (isoform 6) and has not been tested with other isoforms.
Optimization may be required with urine samples

Biological function summary
NRG1 beta 1 significantly influences the development and function of the nervous system. It interacts with the ErbB family of receptors to form a complex that plays a role in cellular proliferation and differentiation. This interaction is important for synaptic plasticity and the formation of neuromuscular junctions. NRG1 beta 1 also contributes to the maintenance of heart function by regulating growth and repair processes in cardiac muscle cells.
Pathways
Researchers recognize NRG1 beta 1 as an important component in the PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways. These pathways are important for regulating cell survival growth and differentiation. Through its binding with ErbB receptors NRG1 beta 1 activates these pathways influencing downstream effectors. Research has shown a relationship between NRG1 and other signaling proteins such as neurotrophins indicating its central role in neurodevelopmental processes.
