Rat TEK (Tyrosine Kinase, Endothelial) ELISA Kit (RTES00787)

Tyrosine Kinase, Endothelial (TEK, also known as TIE2) is a receptor tyrosine kinase almost exclusively expressed on vascular endothelial cells, where it mediates angiogenic signaling, vessel maturation, and endothelial survival in response to angiopoietin ligands. Assay Genie's Rat TEK ELISA Kit enables quantitative measurement of this receptor in rat research specimens, supporting laboratory investigations into cardiovascular development, tumor vascularization, retinopathy, and inflammatory vascular remodeling, areas where altered TEK expression has been documented in published rat studies.

Reagents are supplied in a 96-assay microplate format supporting medium-throughput screening. The ELISA workflow accommodates multiple sample matrices from rat models, including cell culture supernatants, tissue lysates, and liquid fractions collected by standard laboratory methods. Components include a pre-coated microplate, detection antibody, recombinant standards, substrate solution, and assay buffer to complete the full plate protocol.

For research use only, this kit is intended for in vitro investigation of endothelial cell biology and angiogenic signaling pathways. Investigators studying diabetic vasculopathy, tumor angiogenesis, or vascular injury models can apply the assay to quantify circulating or tissue-associated TEK as a biomarker of endothelial activation in rat experimental systems.
