Product details:
Human ADAM10 ELISA Kit ab309315 is a rapid single-wash 90-min Sandwich ELISA to measure Human ADAM10 in cell culture media, EDTA plasma, heparin plasma, serum. This SimpleStep sensitivity is 5.38 pg/mL.
How the assay works
Human ADAM10 SimpleStep ELISA
employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA
plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA
protocol summary in the image section for further details.
Assay Specificity
Our SimpleStep ELISA
kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

The ADAM10 protein also known as CD156c is a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) family. It functions as a metalloproteinase enzyme involved in the ectodomain shedding of various cell surface proteins. ADAM10 has an approximate molecular weight of 85 kDa. This protein has broad expression in various tissues including the brain heart and liver and performs key enzymatic activities that affect cellular communication.
Biological function summary
ADAM10 contributes to development and regulation of synapses in the central nervous system being part of the membrane protein complex. It processes amyloid precursor protein (APP) and other substrates excising their extracellular domains and influencing cell signaling pathways. ADAM10 activity regulates Notch signaling a mechanism essential for cell differentiation and tissue homeostasis.
Pathways
ADAM10 activity intersects with several important biological processes including the Notch and Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) pathways. Notch signaling pathway involves interactions with ligands like Jagged and Delta impacting cell fate decisions. In the EGFR pathway ADAM10 regulates the availability of ligands such as EGF affecting the receptor’s signaling cascades related to cell proliferation and survival.
ADAM10 dysregulation associates with Alzheimer’s disease and cancer. ADAM10's role in cleaving APP is linked to Alzheimer's where altered activity may affect amyloid-beta production and plaque formation. In cancer ADAM10 modulates cell adhesion and migration influencing tumor progression and metastasis. ADAM10 interactions with proteins in these contexts such as ?-Catenin in cancer illustrate its impact on pathophysiological processes.
