 Q&A
Q:

Can you guarantee that your ELISA can quantify ASC oligomers (ASC specks) in the plasma of patients? Does it recognize other CARD or PYD domain containing proteins?

A:
The kit CSB-EL019114HU is designed for full-length taking a reference of the information from this link http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9ULZ3 and use the specific raw material.
It detect the general PYCARD.
We get the detection value of serum and plasma is ND--62.5pg/ml.
Q:

How do you confirm your kit works? I have cell lines that are
ASC positive and ASC knockout, yet a previous kit I tried from another
company did not work. What positive and negative controls can be used
to confirm this kit really detects ASC?

A:
Thanks for your inquiry!
CSB-EL019114HU
We have made strict screening and quality control from raw materials to finished products to ensure the specificity of our kit and detection effect. This kit is used for quantitative detection of PYCARD. The standard in the kit can be used for validation of the entire reagent system, which can achieve quality control effect. Therefore we no longer provide NC/PC alone. Considering that the customer's sample is cell lines that is ASC positive and ASC knockout, and based on the diversity of samples and the different customers' needs, it is not possible for us to validate all the sample types. So we suggest you do a pre-test if you want to test the cell lysis you mentioned and follow the actual test results.
Pls let me know if you have any further questions. Thank you.

Target Background

Function
(From Uniprot)
Functions as key mediator in apoptosis and inflammation. Promotes caspase-mediated apoptosis involving predominantly caspase-8 and also caspase-9 in a probable cell type-specific manner. Involved in activation of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, promotes caspase-8-dependent proteolytic maturation of BID independently of FADD in certain cell types and also mediates mitochondrial translocation of BAX and activates BAX-dependent apoptosis coupled to activation of caspase-9, -2 and -3. Involved in macrophage pyroptosis, a caspase-1-dependent inflammatory form of cell death and is the major constituent of the ASC pyroptosome which forms upon potassium depletion and rapidly recruits and activates caspase-1. In innate immune response believed to act as an integral adapter in the assembly of the inflammasome which activates caspase-1 leading to processing and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines. The function as activating adapter in different types of inflammasomes is mediated by the pyrin and CARD domains and their homotypic interactions. Required for recruitment of caspase-1 to inflammasomes containing certain pattern recognition receptors, such as NLRP2, NLRP3, AIM2 and probably IFI16. In the NLRP1 and NLRC4 inflammasomes seems not be required but facilitates the processing of procaspase-1. In cooperation with NOD2 involved in an inflammasome activated by bacterial muramyl dipeptide leading to caspase-1 activation. May be involved in DDX58-triggered proinflammatory responses and inflammasome activation. Isoform 2 may have a regulating effect on the function as inflammasome adapter. Isoform 3 seems to inhibit inflammasome-mediated maturation of interleukin-1 beta. In collaboration with AIM2 which detects cytosolic double-stranded DNA may also be involved in a caspase-1-independent cell death that involves caspase-8. In adaptive immunity may be involved in maturation of dendritic cells to stimulate T-cell immunity and in cytoskeletal rearrangements coupled to chemotaxis and antigen uptake may be involved in post-transcriptional regulation of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor DOCK2; the latter function is proposed to involve the nuclear form. Also involved in transcriptional activation of cytokines and chemokines independent of the inflammasome; this function may involve AP-1, NF-kappa-B, MAPK and caspase-8 signaling pathways. For regulation of NF-kappa-B activating and inhibiting functions have been reported. Modulates NF-kappa-B induction at the level of the IKK complex by inhibiting kinase activity of CHUK and IKBK. Proposed to compete with RIPK2 for association with CASP1 thereby down-regulating CASP1-mediated RIPK2-dependent NF-kappa-B activation and activating interleukin-1 beta processing. Modulates host resistance to DNA virus infection, probably by inducing the cleavage of and inactivating CGAS in presence of cytoplasmic double-stranded DNA.
