Revvity AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human and Mouse High Specificity Total SMAD3 Detection Kit, 500 Assay Points

SMAD3 is an intracellular signal transducer and transcription factor that mediates TGF-β and activin signaling to regulate cell growth, differentiation, and extracellular matrix production. Upon TGF-β receptor activation, SMAD3 is phosphorylated, enabling formation of complexes with SMAD4 that translocate to the nucleus. The SMAD3/SMAD4 complex regulates transcription of genes including collagens, fibronectin, and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors. SMAD3 plays context-dependent roles as both a tumor suppressor and tumor promoter. Loss of SMAD3 contributes to colorectal cancer, while excessive SMAD3 activation drives pathological fibrosis in multiple organs.

The AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human and Mouse High Specificity Total SMAD3 is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of total SMAD3 in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology.
