Assay Principle
This sandwich ELISA quantifies human tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 10 (gene TNFSF10) in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA) and saliva. 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.
TRAIL (TNFSF10, Apo2L) is a TNF family cytokine that induces apoptosis by engaging the death receptors DR4 (TNFRSF10A) and DR5 (TNFRSF10B). Its activity is tuned by decoy receptors, including TNFRSF10C, TNFRSF10D and osteoprotegerin, which bind TRAIL without triggering cell death. TRAIL is studied in cancer biology, immune surveillance and apoptosis research.
