Human Kallikrein 8 (KLK8) ELISA Kit

Quantitative immunoassays from Assay Genie support research into human kallikrein 8 (KLK8), a secreted trypsin-like serine protease also known as neuropsin. KLK8 has been studied for its roles in hippocampal synaptic plasticity, epidermal desquamation, and tumor microenvironment signaling, with altered expression reported in ovarian, breast, and prostate cancer research. As a candidate biomarker in oncology and neuroscience studies, KLK8 quantification aids investigation of protease-mediated pathways in disease.

The kit provides reagents for 96 assays in a colorimetric format, allowing investigators to generate absorbance-based measurements on standard microplate readers. Each box contains pre-coated wells, detection antibody, calibrated standards, substrate, and wash buffers needed to run the full quantitative protocol. Components are stored refrigerated until first use, then handled per the included protocol to preserve activity through the kit's shelf life.

Investigators studying KLK8 as a candidate biomarker in experimental specimens, conditioned media, or tissue extracts can apply this kit in basic mechanistic biochemistry studies, translational disease research, and clinical sample screening workflows. The human-reactive assay supports measurements relevant to neurology, dermatology, and reproductive biology where KLK8 dysregulation is of interest.
