Mouse Urocortin 2 (UCN2) ELISA Kit

Intended for quantitative measurement of mouse urocortin 2, this immunoassay kit from Assay Genie provides a 96-assay format tailored to laboratory research on the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) peptide family. UCN2 is a stress-related neuropeptide that selectively engages CRF receptor 2 and is studied in models of cardiac function, anxiety-like behavior, appetite regulation, and inflammatory signaling.

Knockout mouse studies have linked UCN2 deficiency to altered cardiac stress responses and metabolic phenotypes, reinforcing its relevance in cardiovascular and metabolic research. The kit supports in vitro work across a range of sample matrices, including tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernatants, and matched mouse specimens.

Each kit contains a pre-coated plate, peptide standards, and detection reagents sufficient for 96 determinations with a standard absorbance-based readout. Researchers investigating CRF/urocortin pathways can use this kit to quantify UCN2 peptide concentrations in mouse model extracts. The assay is intended for research use only and is not validated for diagnostic applications.
