Reactivity 정보
제품 세부 정보
Abcam's Complement C3 Dog ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the quantitative measurement of Complement C3 in biological samples of dog.
In this assay the Complement C3 present in samples reacts with the anti-Complement C3 antibodies which have been adsorbed to the surface of polystyrene microtiter wells. After the removal of unbound proteins by washing, anti-Complement C3 antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), are added. These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound Complement C3. 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 Complement C3 in the sample tested; thus, the absorbance, at 450 nm, is a measure of the concentration of Complement C3 in the test sample. The quantity of Complement C3 in the test sample can be interpolated from the standard curve constructed from the standards, and corrected for sample dilution.

Biological function summary
Complement component C3 forms part of the innate immune system by promoting opsonization which enhances phagocytosis of pathogens. C3b binds to pathogens' surfaces facilitating their recognition by phagocytes. C3 as part of a complex with C3 convertase also has a role in amplifying the activation of the complement cascade. The proteolytic cleavage of C3 into C3b and C3a leads to the activation of other components forming the membrane attack complex and orchestrating inflammation.
Pathways
The complement component C3 functions within both the classical and alternative complement pathways. It acts as a convergence point where the complement activation pathways meet. C3 is activated into C3b and C3a which are key to amplifying the cascade. Furthermore C3 interacts with proteins such as factor B and factor D in the alternative pathway and C4 and C2 in the classical pathway facilitating the formation of C3 convertase necessary for pathway progression.
