Mouse Heat Shock Protein Beta 6 (HSPb6) ELISA Kit

HSPb6, also known as HSP20, is a small heat shock protein with a documented role in smooth muscle relaxation, cardioprotective signaling, and the cellular stress response, where phosphorylation at Ser16 modulates its interaction with co-chaperones and 14-3-3 proteins. Researchers studying ischemia-reperfusion injury, vascular reactivity, or cardiac remodeling frequently track HSPb6 levels as a biomarker of cytoprotective status. Assay Genie's Mouse Heat Shock Protein Beta 6 (HSPb6) ELISA Kit provides a quantitative immunoassay platform for measuring this chaperone in mouse research samples.

The kit is supplied in a 96 assays format and is configured for use with tissue homogenates and multiple sample types derived from mouse models. Each plate provides the reagents needed to generate a standard curve, allowing investigators to interpolate HSPb6 concentrations from absorbance readings. The protocol is optimized for in vitro and basic research workflows and offers a reproducible approach to longitudinal or treatment-versus-control comparisons.

Common applications include quantifying HSPb6 in cardiac, skeletal muscle, or vascular tissue harvested from genetically modified mice, as well as monitoring changes in HSPb6 expression following pharmacologic or physiologic interventions. The kit is intended for research use only and should be handled with standard laboratory precautions, including storage of unopened components refrigerated until first use. Aliquot reagents as needed and protect from light where indicated by the protocol insert.
