Rat Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan (HSPG) ELISA Kit

This Assay Genie rat HSPG ELISA Kit is suited for quantifying heparan sulfate proteoglycan levels across tissue homogenates and body fluid specimens. HSPGs are cell-surface and extracellular matrix macromolecules bearing covalently attached glycosaminoglycan chains. They modulate growth factor signalling, including FGF and VEGF pathways, and participate in tissue morphogenesis, inflammation, and matrix organisation. Reagents are stored at 4°C and should be protected from light to preserve stability across multiple freeze-thaw cycles. The kit is supplied in a microplate format with pre-coated wells, detection antibody, standards, and substrate reagents ready for in vitro quantification workflows. Researchers commonly apply the assay to studies of glomerular basement membrane integrity, neural development, tumour microenvironment characterisation, and vascular remodelling in rat disease models. Typical applications include cardiovascular remodelling studies, renal fibrosis research, and investigations of extracellular matrix turnover in neuroscience programs.
