Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): CV%<8%
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): CV%<10%
Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty assays to assess.
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples were spiked with high concentrations of rat PCX in various matrices and diluted with the Sample Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Description

CUSABIO's rat podocalyxin (PCX) ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of rat PCX in serum, urine, or cell culture supernates. This assay uses the sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique in combination with the enzyme-substrate chromogenic reaction to quantify the analyte in the sample. The color develops positively to the amount of PCX in samples. The color intensity is measured at 450 nm via a microplate reader.

PCX, also called PODXL, is a type I membrane mucoprotein abundantly presented in the podocytes of kidney glomeruli where it plays an important role in maintaining the structural organization of the kidney glomeruli and normal plasma filtration. Dominant and recessive mutations in PODXL are linked to human kidney disease. Abnormal expression of PODXL has been implicated in a range of cancers. PODXL is upregulated on tumors with high metastatic index. The presence of PODXL is associated with poor outcomes, thus emerging as an important prognostic and theragnostic marker in several human cancers.

Target Background

Function
(From Uniprot)
Involved in the regulation of both adhesion and cell morphology and cancer progression. Functions as an anti-adhesive molecule that maintains an open filtration pathway between neighboring foot processes in the podocyte by charge repulsion. Acts as a pro-adhesive molecule, enhancing the adherence of cells to immobilized ligands, increasing the rate of migration and cell-cell contacts in an integrin-dependent manner. Induces the formation of apical actin-dependent microvilli. Involved in the formation of a preapical plasma membrane subdomain to set up initial epithelial polarization and the apical lumen formation during renal tubulogenesis. Plays a role in cancer development and aggressiveness by inducing cell migration and invasion through its interaction with the actin-binding protein EZR. Affects EZR-dependent signaling events, leading to increased activities of the MAPK and PI3K pathways in cancer cells.
