Principle of the Assay: Human Pregnenolone (PREG) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PREG in samples. An antibody specific for PREG has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any PREG present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, HRP-Conjugated Human PREG detection antibody is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound HRP reagent, a Chromogen solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of PREG bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Background/Introduction: Pregnenolone (Preg) is the grand precursor of most if not all steroid hormones and have been suggested to be a novel anti-osteoporotic agent. However, the effects of Preg on osteoclast biology and function has yet to be shown. Here we examined the effect of Preg on receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption in vitro, and potential therapeutic application in inflammatory bone destruction and bone loss in vivo. Our in vitro cellular assays demonstrated that Preg can inhibit the formation of TRAP+ve osteoclast formation as well as mature osteoclast bone resorption in a dose-dependent manner.

Product Notes
The Human PREG (Catalog #AAA331355) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA331355 ELISA Kit recognizes Human PREG. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pregnenolone (PREG), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
