Application

Rat TIMP-2 ELISA Kit has been used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to quantify tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP -2) in U87MG human glioblastoma cells.

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.Please refer to the attached Protocolfor details.

General description

Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP -2) is expressed in the brain especially in spinal motor neurons, cerebellar Purkinje cells, cerebral cortical, and hippocampal pyramidal cells. It is an inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase and tumor angiogenesis. TIMP-2 is involved in matrix remodeling and stimulates quiescent cell proliferation. This ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of a target protein in biological samples, such as serum, plasma, cell culture supernatants, urine, and/or cell and tissue lysates.
