General description

The antibody pair provided in this kit recognizes mouse Pentraxin-related Protein PTX3 / Pentraxin 3.
The pentraxin3 (PTX3) gene encodes for a long PTX3 protein, an acute-phase protein. PTX3 protein is a member of the pentraxin family and is present in several cells and tissues. It is observed during brain inflammatory response and seizure. PTX3 plays a role in angiogenesis, tissue remodeling, and female fertility. It promotes phagocytosis of pathogen and inhibits the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. The antibody pair provided in this kit recognizes mouse pentraxin-related protein PTX3 / pentraxin 3.

Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) belongs to the acute phase proteins; its concentration increases significantly in the early stages of inflammation. In nearly 20% of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) escalated inflammation leads to the development of severe forms of the disease.

BACKGROUNDThe complement system plays a key role in host defense but is activated by ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a form of acute lung injury occurring predominantly due to IRI, which worsens survival after lung transplantation (LTx).

Pentraxin-3 (PTX3) is a multifunctional protein involved in both innate and adaptive immunity. Glucocorticoid (GC) is the first-line therapy to mitigate airway inflammation in asthma. Previous pieces of evidence showed that GC has divergent effects on PTX3 production in various

Dysfunctional elimination of cell debris, and the role of opsonins such as pentraxins, is of interest regarding systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathogenesis. Interferon (IFN)-α is typically elevated during SLE flares, and inhibits hepatocyte production of the pentraxin 'C-reactive protein' (CRP)
