Rat Heat Shock 70kDa Protein 8 (HSPA8) ELISA Kit

The constitutively expressed 70 kDa chaperone central to rat cellular protein homeostasis can be quantified with this immunoassay from Assay Genie. HSPA8 is the cognate member of the HSP70 family, abundant in neurons and most cell types, where it supports nascent chain folding, clathrin uncoating, and chaperone-mediated autophagy. Measuring HSPA8 levels in rat-derived liquid samples offers a quantitative readout for studies of cellular stress adaptation, neurodegeneration models, and proteostasis. The kit uses an absorbance-based ELISA method configured for 96 determinations per microplate, fitting standard rat-sample workflows. Researchers investigating chaperone involvement in cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury, or synaptic plasticity will find HSPA8 a useful marker alongside inducible HSP70 isoforms. Kit components are stored refrigerated between receipt and first use; equilibrate the plate to room temperature before initiating the assay.
