Human Solute Carrier Family 16,Member 3 (SLC16A3) ELISA Kit

Monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4), encoded by the SLC16A3 gene, is a proton-linked transmembrane carrier that mediates the efflux of lactate, pyruvate, and ketone bodies from highly glycolytic cells. Because SLC16A3/MCT4 expression is frequently elevated in tumor tissue, hypoxic astrocytes, and contracting skeletal muscle, quantifying this transporter in experimental samples is a routine strategy in cancer metabolism, neuroscience, and exercise physiology research.

This Assay Genie ELISA Kit is supplied as a 96 assays format and is configured for quantitative measurement of human SLC16A3 in tissue homogenates. The immunoassay uses a microplate layout, lyophilized and liquid reagents, and a colorimetric readout that is compatible with standard benchtop plate readers. Researchers apply the kit to track changes in MCT4 abundance in cell culture and animal tissue lysates, supporting studies of glycolytic flux, tumor microenvironment acidification, and monocarboxylate transport regulation. It is intended for research use only.
