Human Insulin Like Protein 5 (INSL5) ELISA Kit

The Assay Genie INSL5 ELISA kit enables quantitative measurement of Insulin-like peptide 5 in tissue homogenates and other sample matrices using a pre-coated microplate format. INSL5 is a member of the relaxin/insulin superfamily secreted primarily by colonic L-cells, where it signals through the RXFP4 receptor to influence appetite regulation, gut motility, and glucose homeostasis. Researchers investigating metabolic disorders, type 2 diabetes, and gut-brain signaling pathways use this ELISA kit to examine INSL5 expression in intestinal and neuronal tissue samples. The assay employs a human-specific capture antibody, providing minimal cross-reactivity with related relaxin family peptides. Each kit contains a pre-coated microplate, detection antibody, lyophilized standards, and buffers sufficient for 96 reactions. Store unopened components refrigerated; aliquot samples to limit freeze-thaw cycles and protect reagents from light. Intended for research use only, not for diagnostic applications.
