Human Steroid 5 Alpha Reductase 1 (SRD5a1) ELISA Kit

The SRD5A1 protein is a microsomal, NADPH-dependent enzyme that irreversibly converts testosterone into the more potent androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT), shaping local androgen signalling in skin, liver, prostate and neural tissues. Researchers use quantitative SRD5A1 measurement to study androgen metabolism, benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer progression, PCOS, sebum regulation, hair follicle biology, and the pharmacology of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors such as finasteride. Assay Genie's ELISA Kit supports detection of SRD5A1 in prepared human tissue homogenates and cell lysates, with refrigerated storage and a defined shelf life through the printed expiration date. For research use only; not intended for diagnostic or clinical applications.
