Product details
Abcam's XIAP Human ELISA kit (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay designed for the quantitative measurement of Human XIAP in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants.
This assay employs an antibody specific for Human XIAP coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and XIAP present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human XIAP 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 XIAP bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
Optimization may be required with urine samples.

Biological function summary
The function of XIAP involves regulation of apoptosis an important process in maintaining cellular homeostasis. It forms part of the apoptosome complex by interacting with caspases to prevent premature cell death. XIAP serves to protect cells from stress-induced apoptotic signals helping in survival under adverse conditions. This ability makes it a subject of interest in studying cancer survival mechanisms since overactive XIAP can allow cancer cells to avoid programmed cell death.
Pathways
Apoptosis regulation and cell survival pathways prominently feature XIAP. Particularly XIAP plays a role in the intrinsic apoptotic pathway which is activated in response to internal stress signals. XIAP regulates this pathway via its interaction with caspase-9 and interactions with other proteins such as Smac/DIABLO which can antagonize XIAP's function. This interaction is key in balancing cell death and survival therefore highlighting its role in apoptosis control.
