Human Apelin 17 (AP17) ELISA Kit

Apelin-17 (AP17) is a 17-amino-acid bioactive peptide cleaved from the C-terminal region of preproapelin and serves as an endogenous ligand for the APJ receptor (APLNR). This Assay Genie ELISA Kit provides a competitive immunoassay workflow for quantifying AP17 in human research specimens, supplied in a 96-assay configuration. The kit is configured for use with several human matrices, including tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatant samples, supporting research into cardiovascular regulation, angiogenesis, energy metabolism, and fluid homeostasis. Reagents should be stored refrigerated and protected from light, with standards aliquoted to limit freeze-thaw cycles. The AP17 ELISA is intended for in vitro research use only and applies to studies of G-protein-coupled receptor signaling, adipokine biology, and peptide hormone processing, where AP17 concentrations can be tracked across experimental conditions and disease models.
