Mouse Growth Differentiation Factor 3 (GDF3) ELISA Kit

Murine Growth Differentiation Factor 3 (GDF3) is a secreted TGF-beta superfamily cytokine with established roles in embryonic axis specification, primordial germ cell biology, and adipogenic differentiation. This quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie enables researchers to measure endogenous GDF3 concentrations in mouse-derived biological samples, supporting studies in developmental biology, regenerative medicine, and metabolic disease research.

The kit is configured as a 96-assay microplate format, supplied with an immobilized capture antibody, detection antibody, recombinant standard, and substrate solution. An absorbance-based readout on a standard plate reader delivers quantitative results, and the included standard curve supports accurate interpolation of unknown samples. Each component is lot-tracked and quality-controlled by Assay Genie to maintain inter-assay reproducibility.

GDF3, also designated Vgr-2, signals through activin receptor complexes and modulates BMP pathway activity, making it a relevant biomarker in studies of retinal development, brown adipose tissue formation, and germline specification. The mouse-specific antibody pair is reactive with murine GDF3 isoforms, and the assay accommodates heterogeneous sample matrices including tissue homogenates, providing flexibility for in vivo and in vitro experimental designs.
