Human Apolipoprotein A2 (APOA2) ELISA Kit

Quantitative measurement of human Apolipoprotein A-II (APOA2) in research specimens is supported by this immunoassay kit from Assay Genie. APOA2 is the second most abundant protein component of high-density lipoprotein particles after APOA1, and contributes to HDL remodeling, modulation of cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity, and hepatic lipid handling. Researchers measure circulating APOA2 levels to investigate cardiovascular risk, metabolic syndrome, obesity-linked variation at the APOA2 gene locus, and lipid transport pathways. The mature human APOA2 polypeptide is small (about 77 amino acids, roughly 8.7 kDa) and is synthesized primarily in the liver before associating with HDL in circulation.

Packaged as a 96-assay kit using an absorbance-based readout, the assay is performed on standard microplate readers and is intended for research use only. The procedure supports in vitro studies of apolipoprotein metabolism using human serum, heparin plasma, and related clinical specimen matrices, and is suited to projects profiling HDL subpopulations, evaluating dietary or pharmacological interventions, and screening patient cohorts for lipid-related phenotypes.
