Background of Pdgfb

The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a mitogen derived from human platelets consisting of two related polypeptides termed A and B chains. The genes for PDGF A chain, B chain/c-sis, and the PDGF receptor are expressed in human malignant glioma cell lines. Normal human endothelial cells in culture express the B chain of PDGF, and that endothelial-derived PDGF B chain is synthesized as a predicted precursor polypeptide of Mr 27,281. The entire B chain of PDGF is highly (96%) homologous to a portion of p28sis, the transforming protein of simian sarcoma virus (SSV). It has been suggested that p28sis exerts its transforming potential by mimicking the growth promoting activity of PDGF and stimulating the cell in an autocrine manner. PDGF A-chain precursor polypeptide is assigned to the proximal long arm of chromosome 7, band q11.23. The human homolog (PDGF B-chain/c-sis) of the transforming gene of simian sarcoma virus is assigned to chromosome 22. The standard product used in this kit is recombinant rat PDGF-AB (A chain Ser87-Arg196; B chain Ser74-Thr182) with the molecular mass of 24.8KDa.

Recommended Sample Dilution Ratios

According to our internal validation assays using this ELISA kit, to detect Pdgfb, For serum, dilution ratio is 1:5 and concentration is around 1.5 ng/ml.
For plasma, dilution ratio is 1:1 and concentration is 0-46 pg/ml..

Some articles we found to cite concentrations of Pdgfb in samples: 17706067 (Pubmed IDs).

Intra Assay Consistency & Inter Assay Consistency

We measured random samples of Rat PDGF-AB ELISA Kit PicoKine® within the same batch/lot to ensure the consistency of the kits' performances. ELISA intra assay consistency is measured using wells from the same plate/assay kit. ELISA inter assay consistency is measured using wells from different plates from the same batch production/lot.

Reproducibility

We ensure reproducibility by testing three samples with differing concentrations of Pdgfb in ELISA kits from four different production batches/lots.
