Product details

p38 MAPK alpha ELISA Kit ab221012 is a rapid single-wash 90-min Other Immunoassay to measure p38 MAPK alpha in cell lysate, tissue homogenate. This SimpleStep sensitivity is 300 pg/mL.

How the assay works

p38 MAPK alpha SimpleStep ELISA^{^®}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.

Assay Specificity

Our SimpleStep ELISA^® kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

Supplementary information

P38 also known as MAPK14 is a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family. It functions by phosphorylating various downstream substrates and plays a role in cellular responses. The molecular weight of p38 is approximately 38 kDa. This protein is widely expressed across many tissues including heart brain and lungs. Its activation by stimuli such as cytokines and stress factors helps regulate inflammation and cell cycle control.

Biological function summary

P38 is involved in several cellular processes such as inflammation cell differentiation and apoptosis. It often functions as part of a MAPK signaling complex where it serves a critical role in transmitting signals from the cell surface to the nucleus. It interacts with upstream kinases for activation and affects cellular responses by phosphorylating transcription factors and other protein kinases. Through experiments using techniques like p38 western blot and alpha ELISA scientists can monitor its activity and understand its role in cellular physiology.

Pathways

P38 signaling is integral to both the MAPK and NF-kB pathways. It helps mediate several cellular responses including inflammation and stress responses. Within these pathways p38 interacts with other proteins such as JNK and ERK which helps regulate adaptive and innate immune responses. These interactions ensure distinct yet overlapping signaling responses necessary for cellular homeostasis.

P38 plays a role in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and cancer. In rheumatoid arthritis p38 contributes to inflammatory processes promoting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In cancer its role varies; while sometimes promoting cancer cell apoptosis it may also aid in tumor survival and proliferation. The protein TNF-alpha often connects indirectly with p38 through inflammatory pathways highlighting its involvement in these diseases.
