The concentrations of RAGE were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the RAGE standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. Note that 1X Diluted serum samples were 10X pre-diluted, 1X Diluted plasma (citrate) samples were 5X pre-diluted, 1X Diluted urine samples were neat. The interpolated, dilution factor-corrected values are plotted in ng of RAGE per mL of neat biological fluid (mean +/- SD, n=2).

Product details

Rat RAGE ELISA Kit (ab202409) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of RAGE protein in cell culture extracts, cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, serum, tissue extracts, and urine. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Rat RAGE with 6.9 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 (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

RAGE mediates interactions of advanced glycosylation end products (AGE). These are non-enzymatically glycosylated proteins which accumulate in vascular tissue in aging and at an accelerated rate in diabetes. RAGE acts as a mediator of both acute and chronic vascular inflammation in conditions such as atherosclerosis and in particular as a complication of diabetes. AGE/RAGE signaling plays an important role in regulating the production/expression of TNF-alpha, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes. RAGE interaction with S100A12 on endothelium, mononuclear phagocytes, and lymphocytes triggers cellular activation, with generation of key pro-inflammatory mediators. RAGE may be a receptor for amyloid beta peptide. RAGE contributes to the translocation of amyloid-beta peptide (ABPP) across the cell membrane from the extracellular to the intracellular space in cortical neurons. ABPP-initiated RAGE signaling, especially stimulation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), has the capacity to drive a transport system delivering ABPP as a complex with RAGE to the intra-neuronal space. RAGE-dependent signaling in microglia contributes to neuroinflammation, amyloid accumulation, and impaired learning/memory in a mouse model of Alzheimer disease.

RAGE also known as Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products is a multi-ligand cell surface receptor with a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa. It belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily consisting of three extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tail. RAGE is widely expressed in various tissues throughout the body with high expression levels in the lungs heart and cells of the nervous system. The receptor can interact with several ligands such as advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) amyloid beta and S100/calgranulin proteins facilitating signal transduction into the cells.
Biological function summary

RAGE functions in the immune and inflammatory response where it mediates cell signaling that leads to cellular activation and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. It acts as part of complexes with different proteins contributing to cellular processes such as proliferation and migration. RAGE also plays roles in the regulation of oxidative stress and apoptosis impacting cellular health and survival. Researchers employ tools like 'anti-RAGE' antibodies and 'RAGER ELISA' assays to measure and study RAGE expression levels and its interactions in various experimental setups.

Pathways

RAGE is significantly involved in the NF-kB pathway and the MAPK signaling cascade. Its activation can lead to the release of NF-kB a transcription factor that plays an essential role in immune and inflammatory responses. RAGE interacts with proteins such as p38 MAPK leading to a cascade of events that regulate inflammation and stress responses. The signaling pathways involving RAGE are important in maintaining cell homeostasis and responding to cellular stressors and tools like 'anti-RAGE' and 'mouse RAGE' antibodies serve to elucidate these complex pathways further.

RAGE has strong associations with chronic diseases like diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. In diabetes RAGE binds to AGEs contributing to inflammation and vascular complications where it often interacts with proteins like iNOS and VEGF. In Alzheimer's disease RAGE is implicated in the accumulation and toxicity of amyloid-beta peptides interacting with proteins such as APP and tau. Understanding RAGE's role in these diseases can aid in developing therapeutic strategies employing reagents such as 'phen RAGE' and 'anti-RAGE' for targeted treatment approaches.

Target data

Cell surface pattern recognition receptor that senses endogenous stress signals with a broad ligand repertoire including advanced glycation end products, S100 proteins, high-mobility group box 1 protein/HMGB1, amyloid beta/APP oligomers, nucleic acids, phospholipids and glycosaminoglycans (PubMed : 19910580, PubMed : 28627626). Advanced glycosylation end products are nonenzymatically glycosylated proteins which accumulate in vascular tissue in aging and at an accelerated rate in diabetes. These ligands accumulate at inflammatory sites during the pathogenesis of various diseases, including diabetes, vascular complications, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancers and RAGE transduces their binding into pro-inflammatory responses. Upon ligand binding, uses TIRAP and MYD88 as adapters to transduce the signal ultimately leading to the induction or inflammatory cytokines IL6, IL8 and TNFalpha through activation of NF-kappa-B. Interaction with S100A12 on endothelium, mononuclear phagocytes, and lymphocytes triggers cellular activation, with generation of key pro-inflammatory mediators (By similarity). Interaction with S100B after myocardial infarction may play a role in myocyte apoptosis by activating ERK1/2 and p53/TP53 signaling (By similarity). Contributes to the translocation of amyloid-beta peptide (ABPP) across the cell membrane from the extracellular to the intracellular space in cortical neurons. ABPP-initiated RAGE signaling, especially stimulation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), has the capacity to drive a transport system delivering ABPP as a complex with RAGE to the intraneuronal space. Participates in endothelial albumin transcytosis together with HMGB1 through the RAGE/SRC/Caveolin-1 pathway, leading to endothelial hyperpermeability. Mediates the loading of HMGB1 in extracellular vesicles (EVs) that shuttle HMGB1 to hepatocytes by transferrin-mediated endocytosis and subsequently promote hepatocyte pyroptosis by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome. Promotes also extracellular hypomethylated DNA (CpG DNA) uptake by cells via the endosomal route to activate inflammatory responses (By similarity).
