Native Mouse Serum Haptoglobin

• Cat.No.: Hp-8155M
• Product Overview: Mouse Serum Haptoglobin was purified from Mouse Serum.

Specification

• Description: Haptoglobin (frequently abbreviated as Hp) is a protein in the blood plasma that binds free hemoglobin released from erythrocytes with high affinity and thereby inhibits its oxidative activity. The haptoglobin-hemoglobin complex will then be removed by the reticuloendothelial system (mostly the spleen). Haptoglobin is a serum protein that consists of two alpha and two beta chains connected by disulfide bridges. It acts as a hemoglobin scavenger and has been associated with protease inhibitory activity. It is a positive acute phase reactant, the levels of which increase significantly in mice in response to inflammation, tissue injury or disease.
