INHA ELISA Kit (Mouse) (OKCD06304)

Description of target: This gene encodes a member of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate multiple peptide products, including the alpha subunit of the inhibin A and B protein complexes. These complexes negatively regulate follicle stimulating hormone secretion from the pituitary gland. Inhibins have also been implicated in regulating numerous cellular processes including cell proliferation, apoptosis, immune response and hormone secretion. Mice in which this gene has been ablated exhibit sex cord-stromal tumors and symptoms that mimic the human cancer cachexia syndrome.;Species reactivity: Mouse;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: < 5.7pg/mL
