Descripción

General description

Hyaluronidases are a family of enzymes that catalyze the degradation of the glycosaminoglycan, hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is one of the major constituents of the extracellular matrix in organisms where it contributes to both cell proliferation and migration. The role of hyaluronidases in breaking down this key factor in cell proliferation makes them a possible target for cancer treatment. One hypothesis is that increased hyaluronidase may help prevent tumor invasion by breaking down the extracellular matrix needed for tumor expansion. Conversely, decreasing hyaluronidase activity might prevent metastasis by stopping cancer cells from escaping primary tumor masses. The study to determine hyaluronidases′ exact role in cancer pathology is still ongoing.

Application

The Hyaluronidase Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit may be used for:

• Cancer Research
• Drug Discovery

Features and Benefits

Efficient Inhibitor Screening: Screen for Hyaluronidase inhibitors using only 20 μL of test compound with a quick 30 minute protocol, offering a streamlined and effortless procedure.

Compatibility with High-Throughput Systems: Easily incorporate our kit into high-throughput handling systems, ensuring smooth and accurate processing, enhancing efficiency in your laboratory workflow.

Suitability

The kit is suitable for the high-throughput screening for evaluation of hyaluronidase inhibitors.

Principle

The Hyaluronidase Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit uses a two step turbidimetric reaction to measure hyaluronidase activity by the amount of hyaluronic acid that is hydrolyzed. A stop reagent halts the enzymatic reaction and forms turbidity with any residual hyaluronic acid in the well. The decrease in turbidity at A600 nm is directly proportional to the hyaluronidase activity in the sample.
