Product Overview

Autotaxin (ATX) is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 125 kDa that was isolated as a cell migration promoting factor from the cell culture supernatant of human malignant melanoma cells. It is known that liver damage such as fibrosis causes metabolic inhibition of ATX, which leads to retention of ATX in the blood, resulting in an increase in its blood concentration.

LabAssay™ ATX is a kit designed to measure ATX in samples. With the use of a microplate, this kit provides a convenient method for measuring ATX in samples.

[Note] LabAssay™ series are reagents for research purposes. They cannot be used for diagnostic purposes.

Assay Principle

Lysophosphatidylcholine is hydrolyzed by the lysophospholipase D activity of ATX in the sample to form choline. The resultant choline is oxidized by the action of choline oxidase (COD) to form hydrogen peroxide. The resultant hydrogen peroxide oxidatively condenses N-Ethyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl)-3-methylaniline (TOPS) and 4-aminoantipyrine quantitatively through the action of peroxidase (POD) to produce a blue-violet pigment. The reaction is stopped by addition of the Stop Solution and absorbance is measured to determine ATX activity in the sample.

Samples measured within the calibration range are indicated in red; samples outside the range were diluted 20-fold and assayed.

[Result]
A good correlation was confirmed. In addition, competitor's product R required dilution of all samples because the values were outside the calibration curve range. On the other hand, This kit could measure within the calibration curve range without diluting the samples.

FAQ

About sample

What samples should I use?
Analyze samples immediately after collection. If it is difficult to analyze immediately, store frozen until analysis. Hemolysis may influence the assay.
Is it possible to measure in cell culture supernatant?
Yes. However, measurement availability depends on the culture medium, cell type and culture conditions. When using cell culture supernatant as a sample, please perform a spiked recovery test or dilution linearity test in advance using the culture medium to be used in your experiment.
Which anticoagulants can I use?
The anticoagulant heparin does not significantly influence the assay when used in normal amounts. Do not use EDTA because it influences the assay.
What should I do with samples that exceed the measurable range?
Dilute samples with saline and repeat the assay if the measured value exceeds the measurable range, and multiply the result by the dilution factor.
Does ascorbic acid affect the measured values?
Ascorbic acid does not affect the assay up to 10 mg/dL.
