Rat TACR1 (Tachykinin Receptor 1) ELISA Kit (RTES00777)

This Assay Genie research-use ELISA kit targets Tachykinin Receptor 1 (TACR1), also known as the neurokinin 1 (NK-1) receptor, a G-protein coupled receptor that mediates substance P signaling in rat tissues. The kit is supplied as a 96 assays microplate-format workflow for quantitative measurement of the receptor in rat-derived research samples. Applications include studies of tachykinin pathway involvement in pain perception, neurogenic inflammation, anxiety-like behavior, gastrointestinal motility, and cardiovascular regulation, where receptor expression and ligand-induced internalization are tracked across treatment groups.

Each kit ships with pre-coated wells, matched detection reagent, standards, wash buffer, substrate, and stop solution packed for single use. Rat serum samples, prepared according to the included protocol, yield reliable readings across dose-response and time-course experiments. Researchers investigating receptor pharmacology, neuropeptide antagonist screening, or downstream signaling changes in rodent disease models will find the workflow compatible with standard ELISA plate readers and a chromogenic readout. Unopened components should be stored refrigerated, while working standards are best aliquoted and held frozen to limit freeze-thaw exposure across long studies.
