Human Galectin 4 (GAL4) ELISA Kit

Galectin-4 (GAL4) is a tandem-repeat lectin expressed predominantly in gastrointestinal epithelium, where it contributes to intestinal homeostasis, mucosal barrier integrity, and stabilization of lipid rafts at the apical cell surface. Altered GAL4 expression has been documented in colorectal, pancreatic, and gastric malignancies, positioning circulating Galectin-4 as a candidate biomarker for gastrointestinal cancer biology and mucosal immunology research. The Assay Genie human GAL4 ELISA Kit is built on an antibody-pair capture format and supplied in a 96 assays pack configured for quantitative measurement of native Galectin-4 in human biofluid specimens and tissue homogenates. Investigators studying inflammatory bowel disease, colorectal carcinogenesis, and epithelial barrier dysfunction can incorporate this assay into case-control cohort studies and tissue-level protein profiling workflows. Each kit delivers a complete set of reagents and calibrated standards for 96 determinations on a microplate, compatible with standard ELISA plate readers already in routine research-laboratory use. The procedure is intended for research use only and is not cleared for clinical diagnostic procedures.
