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 used for the determination of ATX in blood (serum and plasma) and cell culture supernatant. 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. It cannot be used for diagnostic purposes.

Example of Calibration Curve
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.

[Result]
The CV (%) of human serum was 0.36-2.4%, mouse serum was 0.64-3.5%, and rat serum was 1.9-5.6%, indicating good reproducibility.
Dilution linearity test
Using saline, human serum/plasma (Heparin), mouse serum/plasma (Heparin), and rat serum/plasma (Heparin) at two different concentrations each, were subjected to a 2-fold serial dilution with sample buffer and measured to confirm linearity (measured in duplicates).
[Result]
Good linearity was confirmed for all samples within the calibration curve range.
Spiked recovery test
Standard solutions at three concentrations were added to human serum/plasma(Heparin), mouse serum/plasma(Heparin) and rat serum/plasma(Heparin). Next, spike-recovery tests were conducted, with each measurement performed in duplicate.

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, the other company R’s product required dilution of all samples because the values were outside the calibration curve range. On the other hand, our product could measure within the calibration curve range without diluting the samples.
FAQ
About sample
- What specimens should I use?
- Analyze specimens 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, we confirmed that the recovery rate may vary depending on the culture medium in the spiked recovery test, and the high concentration portion may show a high value in the dilution linearity test. If you use cell culture supernatant as a sample, perform a spiked recovery test or dilution linearity test on the medium to be used in advance.
- 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 specimen 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.
