Further Information

Alternative Names:
(carboxymethyl) lysine
Background:
Reducing sugars react with protein amino groups to form a diverse group of protein-bound moieties with fluorescent and cross-linking properties. These compounds, called advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), have been implicated in the structural and functional alterations of proteins that occur during aging and long-term diabetes. Although several AGE structures have been reported (1, 2), it was demonstrated that Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine (CML) is a major antigenic AGE structure. CML concentration is also increased in patients who have diabetes with complications, including nephropathy (3?5), retinopathy (6), and atherosclerosis (7?9). CML is also recognized by receptor for AGE (RAGE), and CML-RAGE interaction activates cell signaling pathways such as NF-B and enhances the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (10). It has been postulated that AGE structures present in vivo could serve as an immunological epitope to raise autoantibodies against AGE structures, particularly CML. Shibayama et al. showed the presence of autoantibodies against AGE structures, particularly those against CML adduct in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats and patients with several diseases (11, 12). The autoantibody against CML adduct was higher in patients with renal failure than in normal subjects or diabetic patients without renal failure (11). These results suggest that autoantibody against CML might play a possible role in the development of diabetic nephropathy or chronic renal failure.
Description:
The CycLex Research Product CircuLex Anti-CML mouse autoantibody ELISA kit is used for the semi-quantitative measurement of IgG class anti-CML/Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine mouse autoantibody in mouse serum and plasma.
Gene IDs:
Human: 613 Mouse: 110279
Kit Components:
CML-BSA coated Microplate, BSA coated Microplate, Wash Buffer, Dilution Buffer, Anti-CML mouse Antibody Standard, HRP conjugated Detection Antibody, Substrate Reagent, Stop Solution
Measurement Range:
Dilution factors need to be taken into consideration in calculating the antitoCML antibody concentration. Results exceeding antitoCML autoantibody level of 2000 ng/ml, sample should be repeated with dilution buffer.
Sensitivity:
better than 0.162 ng/mL of sample.
Target:
CML
