Human Kallistatin (KAL) ELISA Kit

Kallistatin (KAL) is a heparin-binding serine protease inhibitor (serpin) of the SERPINA4 gene family, studied in cardiovascular, angiogenic, inflammatory, and hepatic research contexts. Endogenous KAL functions as a tissue kallikrein inhibitor with documented roles in blood pressure regulation, oxidative stress responses, and the inhibition of pathological angiogenesis. This quantitative ELISA Kit from Assay Genie provides researchers with a tool to measure circulating KAL in samples such as human serum, blood-derived plasma, tissue homogenates, and other body fluids.

Supplied as a 96-assay research-use-only kit, the assay employs an absorbance-based read-out compatible with standard laboratory microplate readers. Applications include investigations of endothelial function, sepsis, hypertension, and tumor biology, where kallistatin has been characterized as a multifunctional regulator with both anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties.

The kit supports vascular biology studies exploring KAL's influence on vascular remodeling and is intended for in vitro research use only, with utility in biomarker discovery programs focused on inflammatory and metabolic disease states.
