Product details

Abcam's GM-CSF Rat ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of rat GM-CSF in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants.

This assay employs an antibody specific for rat GM-CSF coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and GM-CSF present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti- rat GM-CSF 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 GM-CSF bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Supplementary information

GM-CSF also known as Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor is a glycoprotein with a mass of approximately 23 kDa. This protein plays a mechanical role in stimulating the differentiation and proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells into granulocytes and macrophages. Its expression occurs in various cell types including macrophages T cells endothelial cells and fibroblasts. GM-CSF interacts with its specific receptor known as CSF2 receptor to exert its effects.
Biological function summary

GM-CSF influences the immune system by enhancing the functional capacity of mature neutrophils macrophages and eosinophils. GM-CSF protein acts alone and not as part of a larger protein complex. It is important in regulating immune responses and inflammation. Due to its role in promoting the survival and activation of these immune cells GM-CSF is important for mounting an effective immune defense in response to infections and other challenges.

Pathways

GM-CSF signaling is integral to the JAK-STAT pathway. This pathway is essential for transmitting signals from surface receptors like GM-CSF receptors into the nucleus thereby inducing gene expression that leads to cell survival and proliferation. GM-CSF also intersects with the ERK1/ERK2 MAPK pathway which is involved in regulating cellular processes such as division and differentiation. The GM-CSF receptor shares similarities with other cytokine receptors involved in these pathways making it related to various cytokines through its downstream signaling effects.

GM-CSF has a well-established connection to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. In rheumatoid arthritis overproduction of GM-CSF is linked to chronic inflammation and joint damage. In multiple sclerosis GM-CSF might contribute to the pathological immune responses against the central nervous system. Antibodies targeting GM-CSF or its receptor represent a therapeutic strategy for these autoimmune diseases. By modulating GM-CSF activity therapeutic approaches aim to reduce inflammation and autoimmunity highlighting the protein's importance in disease progression.
