Assay Principle
This sandwich ELISA quantifies human angiopoietin-2 (gene ANGPT2) in cell culture supernatants, serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA), saliva and human milk. Strips are pre-coated with a capture antibody. After the sample is added, a biotinylated detection antibody binds the captured protein, and an avidin–biotin–peroxidase complex supplies the enzyme. TMB develops color in proportion to the bound target; the reaction is stopped and read at 450 nm, and concentrations are read from the standard curve.
Angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2) is a TIE2 (TEK) ligand that competes with angiopoietin-1 and often acts as a context-dependent antagonist. It loosens vessel stability, promoting sprouting when VEGF is present and vessel regression when it is not, and it is widely studied in tumor angiogenesis, inflammation and vascular leakage.
