Rat Neuropeptide Y Receptor Y5 (NPY5R) ELISA Kit

Quantitative measurement of the Neuropeptide Y receptor Y5 (NPY5R) in rat-derived samples is supported by this absorbance-based immunoassay kit from Assay Genie. NPY5R is a G-protein coupled receptor densely expressed in hypothalamic regions that govern appetite regulation, energy homeostasis, and feeding behavior, making it a primary target in metabolic disorder, obesity, and neuropeptide signaling research.

The kit is configured for 96 assays and is intended for research use with rat tissue homogenates. Standards and samples are processed in a microplate format, with absorbance read on a standard plate reader. Reagents should be stored refrigerated to preserve antibody binding activity throughout the assay workflow, and each kit includes a pre-coated capture plate, biotinylated detection antibody, recombinant standard, streptavidin-HRP conjugate, substrate solution, and wash buffer.

Investigators studying NPY receptor subtypes, hypothalamic satiety circuits, or feeding-related neural pathways can use this kit alongside complementary receptor panels to build a fuller picture of neuropeptide activity in brain tissue extracts. The protocol supports standard curve generation across a working range of recombinant NPY5R dilutions, allowing interpolation of unknown sample concentrations from parallel well measurements.
