2.Direct cyclic GMP for 0.1M HCl Cell Lysates
Stable Color-Coded Liquid Reagents
Most Sensitive Kit for cGMP
 



Assay Designs´ Direct cyclic GMP (cGMP) kit is designed for use with tissue samples that have been grown in tissue culture media. The kit includes 0.1M HCl which is added to cells to lyse them, stop endogenous phosphodiesterase activity and stabilize the released cyclic GMP. The 0.1M HCl treated samples are then analyzed directly in the microtiter plate without extraction, drying or reconstitution. If analysis is to be performed on samples in buffer or with samples that have been extracted and dried down, please refer to Assay Designs´ Regular cyclic GMP kit.

Guanosine 3´, 5´-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP; cGMP) was identified in 1963. It has been shown to be present at levels typically 10 to 100 fold lower than cyclic AMP in most tissues and is formed by the action of the enzyme guanylate cyclase on GTP. It is involved in a number of important biological reactions. Some hormones, such as acetylcholine, insulin and oxytocin, as well as certain other chemicals like serotonin and histamine cause an increase in cyclic GMP levels. Stimulators of guanylate cyclase such as the vasodilators nitroprusside, nitroglycerin, sodium nitrate and nitric oxide (NO) also stimulate cyclic GMP levels. Peptides such as atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) that relax smooth muscle also increase cyclic GMP concentrations. cGMP has been confirmed as a second messenger for ANP.


 



 


 


 


 


 


1. Pipet Standards and Samples in duplicate into the wells.
2. Pipet the blue Alkaline Phosphatase Conjugate followed by the yellow Antibody into the wells and incubate.
3. Aspirate and wash the plate.
4. Pipet Substrate into the wells and incubate.
5. Pipet Stop Solution and read on a plate reader at 405 nm.
6. Calculate sample concentrations from Standard Curve.
