Mouse Periostin ELISA Kit (ab243689) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Periostin protein in cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse Periostin with 22.1 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 (Pre-coated 384 well Microplate SimpleStep ELISA® ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.
Periostin also known as POSTN or OSF-2 is an extracellular matrix protein with a molecular weight of approximately 90 kDa. It plays a mechanical role in tissue remodeling by binding to integrins which supports tissue repair and regeneration. Periostin is mainly expressed in collagen-rich tissues such as bone periodontal ligament and cardiac tissues. It is synthesized by osteoblasts fibroblasts and other stromal cells functioning as a structural protein that supports cell adhesion and migration.
The periostin protein contributes to the maintenance of tissue integrity and mechanical properties. It does not solely act; it forms part of a multiprotein complex with collagen and other extracellular matrix components. This involvement is necessary for maintaining cellular interactions and promoting tissue healing processes. Additionally periostin influences cell proliferation and migration impacting developmental and wound healing biology.
Periostin is involved in the integrin signaling pathway and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway both important for cell communication and movement. Through these pathways periostin interacts with integrins αvβ3 and αvβ5 facilitating cell adhesion and migration. The Wnt/β-catenin pathway interaction involves several proteins including Frizzled receptors ensuring regulation of cellular proliferation and differentiation. These pathways make periostin a coordinator of complex cellular processes.
The periostin protein is associated with conditions such as fibrotic diseases and cardiovascular disorders. In fibrosis periostin promotes collagen cross-linking exacerbating tissue stiffness. This involves increased interaction with proteins like collagen types I and V contributing to pathological fibrotic progression. In cardiovascular disorders elevated periostin levels after myocardial injury are linked with fibrotic scarring where it collaborates with matrix metalloproteinases to remodel the cardiac tissue architecture. Understanding these connections can lead to novel therapeutic strategies.

Mouse Periostin Standard Curve Comparison.
Standard Curve comparison between mouse Periostin SimpleStep ELISA kit and traditional ELISA kit from leading competitor. SimpleStep ELISA kit shows increased sensitivity.
Example of mouse Periostin standard curve in Sample Diluent NS.
The Periostin standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
Example of mouse Periostin standard curve in Sample Diluent 50BS.
The Periostin standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
Interpolated concentrations of native Periostin in mouse serum and plasma samples.
The concentrations of Periostin were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the Periostin standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 1: 100, plasma (citrate) 1: 100, plasma (heparin) 1: 100, and plasma (EDTA) 1: 100. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Periostin concentration was determined to be 293.6 ng/mL in serum, 347.4 ng/mL in plasma (citrate), 219.8 ng/ml in plasma (heparin), and 161.1 ng/ml in plasma (EDTA).
