Product details

Rat IgE ELISA Kit ab157736 is a sandwich ELISA to measure Rat IgE in serum, plasma with a sensitivity of 1.4192 ng/ml.

How the assay works

In this assay the IgE present in samples reacts with the anti-IgE antibodies which have been adsorbed to the surface of polystyrene microtitre wells. After the removal of unbound proteins by washing, anti-IgE antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are added. These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound IgE. Following another washing step, the enzyme bound to the immunosorbent is assayed by the addition of a chromogenic substrate, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The quantity of bound enzyme varies directly with the concentration of IgE in the sample tested; thus, the absorbance, at 450 nm, is a measure of the concentration of IgE in the test sample. The quantity of IgE in the test sample can be interpolated from the standard curve constructed from the standards, and corrected for sample dilution.

Assay Specificity

Our ELISA kits are rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility. Please check the protocol booklet for more details

Supplementary information

The IgE protein [also known as immunoglobulin E] is a type of antibody with a molecular mass of approximately 190 kDa. IgE is expressed primarily on the surface of mast cells and basophils. It plays a central role in the immune system by binding to allergens and triggering the release of inflammatory mediators from mast cells and basophils. IgE's high-affinity binding to its receptor FcεRI on these effector cells facilitates this process. IgE's activity is central to initiating immediate hypersensitivity reactions which are a part of the body's immune response.
Biological function summary

The IgE protein functions as a mediator in allergic reactions. It does not operate as part of a complex but directly interacts with allergens and the IgE-specific receptors on immune cells. IgE's role is important in defense against parasitic infections where it performs a protective function by promoting eosinophil activation and degranulation. This action helps the body to expel the parasites. In the absence of parasitic infection IgE's function translates into its role in allergic responses where it becomes responsible for the symptoms associated with allergic diseases.

Pathways

IgE is an important player in the immune response pathway. The protein interacts with allergy-related pathways such as the T helper 2 (Th2) pathway. IgE's role in this pathway involves cooperation with cytokines notably IL-4 and IL-13 which are produced by Th2 cells and promote IgE synthesis in B cells. Also IgE is linked to the FcεRI receptor signaling pathway that initiates the release of histamines and other mediators when IgE binds to an allergen leading to an allergic response.

IgE is closely linked to allergic conditions like asthma and allergic rhinitis. These conditions result from IgE-mediated inflammatory responses that affect the respiratory system. In asthma IgE antibodies play a role in airway inflammation and hyperreactivity by promoting the activation of multiple immune cells including eosinophils and mast cells. IgE's involvement in allergic rhinitis manifests through similar mechanisms with nasal inflammation and irritation. IgE's interaction with other proteins such as histamine-releasing factor exacerbates these conditions by increasing the release of histamine which intensifies the allergic symptoms.

Target data

Constant region of immunoglobulin heavy chains. Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are membrane-bound or secreted glycoproteins produced by B lymphocytes. In the recognition phase of humoral immunity, the membrane-bound immunoglobulins serve as receptors which, upon binding of a specific antigen, trigger the clonal expansion and differentiation of B lymphocytes into immunoglobulins-secreting plasma cells. Secreted immunoglobulins mediate the effector phase of humoral immunity, which results in the elimination of bound antigens. The antigen binding site is formed by the variable domain of one heavy chain, together with that of its associated light chain. Thus, each immunoglobulin has two antigen binding sites with remarkable affinity for a particular antigen. The variable domains are assembled by a process called V-(D)-J rearrangement and can then be subjected to somatic hypermutations which, after exposure to antigen and selection, allow affinity maturation for a particular antigen.
