Human Motilin (MTL) ELISA Kit

Motilin is a 22-amino acid peptide hormone secreted by enteroendocrine M cells of the duodenum and jejunum. It drives the phase III contractions of the interdigestive migrating motor complex, modulates gastric emptying, and has been investigated as a circulating biomarker in gastroparesis, functional dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome, and small bowel dysmotility. Research teams studying appetite regulation, satiety signaling, and the gut-brain endocrine axis rely on quantitative measurement of human motilin in clinical and academic settings. Assay Genie supplies the Human Motilin (MTL) ELISA Kit as a 96-assay microplate configuration intended for in vitro research use only. Each kit includes a pre-coated plate, lyophilized recombinant standards supplied in sealed vials, biotinylated detection antibody, streptavidin-HRP conjugate, wash buffer, substrate, and stop solution sufficient for quantitative readout from aliquoted human serum or plasma samples on a standard microplate reader. Researchers commonly pair motilin readouts with ghrelin, leptin, and PYY to characterize feeding behavior, postprandial responses, and bariatric surgery outcomes. The kit supports investigations into fasting plasma motilin concentrations and their relationship to gastric emptying half-time in healthy and patient cohorts.
