Sample
Urine, plasma, tissue culture supernatants, and other sample matrices
Intended Use
PGE2 ELISA Kit is a competitive assay that can be used for quantification of PGE2 in urine, plasma, tissue culture supernatants, and other sample matrices. The assay has a range from 7.8-1,000 pg/ml, a sensitivity (80% B/B0) of approximately 13 pg/ml, and a lower limit of detection (LLOD) of 11 pg/ml.

General Description
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is an eicosanoid formed from arachidonic acid by COX enzymes and PGE2 synthase (PGES) via PGG2 and PGH2 intermediates. It can be produced de novo in all cells following cell activation and the release of arachidonic acid from plasma membrane phospholipids or when exogenous free arachidonate is available. It acts in an autocrine or paracrine fashion to bind to its receptors, EP1, EP2, EP3, and EP4, which have differing tissue distribution and cellular localizations, to initiate signaling through various pathways, including the protein kinase A (PKA), β-catenin, EGF, MAPK, NF-κB, and PI3K/Akt pathways. Due to this, PGE2 is involved in a wide variety of biological processes, including inflammation, fertility and parturition, gastric mucosal integrity and motility, and immune modulation in and outside of cancer.
