Human Mannose Receptor C Type 1 (MRC1) ELISA Kit

MRC1 (Mannose Receptor C Type 1, also called CD206) is a C-type lectin pattern recognition receptor predominantly expressed on alternatively activated (M2-polarized) macrophages, where it mediates endocytosis of mannose-bearing glycoconjugates on pathogens and host glycoproteins. The Assay Genie MRC1 ELISA Kit provides a quantitative protein-level readout for studies of human macrophage biology, innate immunity, and M1/M2 polarization dynamics.

Common research applications include tumor microenvironment profiling, infectious disease investigation, fibrotic tissue characterization, and tracking chronic inflammatory responses. Each kit is supplied in a 96 assays format, supporting cohort-level biomarker screening and validation of transcriptomic findings at the protein level. Researchers can employ the assay to correlate receptor expression with disease progression or therapeutic response across patient cohorts.

For laboratory workflows, the procedure uses a standard microplate reader and is intended for research use only, not for diagnostic procedures. Components should be stored according to the package insert to preserve reagent activity across the shelf life of the product. Refer to the enclosed documentation for detailed sample preparation, standard curve generation, and data analysis guidance.
