Rat SDC4 (Syndecan 4) ELISA Kit (RTES00775)

Quantitative measurement of syndecan-4 in rat specimens supports research into extracellular matrix biology, integrin co-receptor signaling, and fibrotic disease models. Syndecan-4 is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan that regulates cell adhesion, mechanotransduction through the PKCα pathway, and growth factor responses, making it a marker of interest in studies of cardiac remodeling, renal injury, pulmonary fibrosis, and wound repair. Investigators apply this enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to quantify circulating and tissue-derived protein levels in experimentally collected rat samples.

Each kit provides 96 assays of ready-to-use components, run on a standard microplate reader in the laboratory. The protocol is intended for in vitro research applications; reagents should be stored refrigerated upon arrival to preserve activity, and aliquoting the standard and conjugate into single-use portions minimizes freeze-thaw degradation over long studies. This product is supplied by Assay Genie for research use only and is not intended for clinical diagnostic procedures.
