5. ON RAGE the Receptor for Advanced Glycation Endproducts is a 35kD transmembrane receptor of the immunoglobulin super family It is also known as AGER AGER gene is mapped to chromosome 6p21 3 by mapping by contiguous cosmids and YAC clones and by fluorescence in situ hybridization The expression of RAGE is particularly increased in neurons close to deposits of amyloid beta peptide and to neurofibrillary tangles RAGE has been linked to several chronic diseases which are thought to result from vascular damage The pathogenesis is hypothesized to include ligand binding upon which RAGE signals activation of the nuclear factor kappa B NF KB FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY NOT FOR 0 OR THERAPEUTIC PROCEDURES Il ASSAY PRINCIPLES The Rat AGER ELISA Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay kit is an in vitro enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Rat AGER in Cell Culture Supernatants Serum Plasma This assay employs an antibody specific for Rat AGER coated on a 96 well plate Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and AGER present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody The wells are washed and biotinylated anti Rat AGER antibody is added After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody HRP conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells The wells are again washed a T MB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of AGER bound The Stop Solu
