Rat Chemerin (CHEM) ELISA Kit

This rat-specific immunoassay from Assay Genie quantifies chemerin, an adipokine and chemotactic ligand encoded by the RARRES2 gene, in laboratory rat samples. Chemerin circulates in blood and is secreted by adipose tissue, liver, and immune cells, where it signals through the CMKLR1 receptor to recruit dendritic cells and macrophages to sites of inflammation. The kit supports research into obesity-linked metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and inflammatory signaling pathways, where circulating chemerin concentrations are commonly used as a biomarker of adipose-driven inflammation.

Supplied in a 96-assay configuration, the kit is formatted for measuring chemerin in blood-derived fractions and tissue homogenates harvested from rat experimental models. It is intended for research use only and is not cleared for diagnostic procedures in humans. Investigators studying adipokine biology, metabolic syndrome, or chemokine-mediated immune cell trafficking can apply this ELISA to longitudinal sampling, intervention studies, and tissue-versus-circulation comparisons in rodent systems.
