Product Name | Mouse β-Endorphin ELISA Kit |
Species | Mouse |
Description | β-Endorphin (β-EP) is an endogenous opioid neuropeptide and peptide hormone that is produced in certain neurons within the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. It is one of five endorphins that are produced in mouses, the others of which include αendorphin, γ-endorphin, α-neoendorphin, and β-neoendorphin. Function of β-endorphin has been known to be associated with hunger, thrill, pain, maternal care, sexual behavior, and reward cognition. In the broadest sense, β-endorphin is primarily utilized in the body to reduce stress and maintain homeostasis. In behavioral research, studies have shown that β-endorphin is released via volume transmission into the ventricular system in response to a variety of stimuli, and novel stimuli in particular. BioVision’sβ-EP ELISA kit is a sandwich ELISA assay for the quantitative measurement ofβ-EP in mouse serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants in 90 minutes. The density of color is proportional to the amount ofβ-EP captured from the samples. |
