Mouse Ghrelin (GHRL) ELISA Kit

Ghrelin is a 28-amino-acid orexigenic peptide secreted primarily by X/A-like cells of the gastric fundus, where it acts through the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) to stimulate appetite, promote growth hormone release, and modulate energy balance and glucose homeostasis. This Assay Genie ELISA Kit supports quantitative measurement of mouse ghrelin across a panel of specimen types including tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants, enabling studies in metabolic disease, feeding behavior, bariatric surgery models, cachexia, diabetes, and gastrointestinal physiology. Researchers can probe circulating hormone levels as well as local production in stomach, hypothalamus, pancreas, and adipose tissue. The immunoassay is configured for a microplate with all reagents supplied for 96 determinations, and the kit is specific to mouse samples. Refrigerate upon arrival to preserve antibody and standard activity.
