ADP Fluorimetric Assay Kit

Cat.No. : Kit-2430
Product Overview : Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is the product of ATP dephosphorylation by ATPases. ADP can be converted back to ATP by ATP synthases. ADP levels regulate several enzymes involved in intermediary metabolism. Conventionally, ADP levels are measured by luciferase/luciferin mediated assays after ADP is converted to ATP. However, since these assays require measurement of ATP in the sample before conversion of ADP to ATP, if the nascent ATP concentration is significantly higher than the ADP concentration, the ATP signal will drown out the ADP signal. The newly designed ADP Assay Kit provides a convenient fluorometric means to measure ADP level even in the presence of ATP. In the assay, ADP is converted to ATP and pyruvate. The generated pyruvate is then quantified by a fluorimetric method (lexc/em = 530/590nm). The assay is simple, sensitive, stable, high-throughput adaptable and can detect as low as 0.1 µM ADP in biological samples.

Ask a question
Can ADP proteins and their receptors be used as biomarkers for disease? 12/03/2022

es, there is evidence that ADP proteins and their receptors can be used as biomarkers for certain diseases. For example, the level of ADP released in patients with acute myocardial infarction has been shown to predict the risk of major bleeding complications during therapy with antiplatelet drugs. In addition, genetic variants associated with the P2Y12 receptor have been found to be associated with the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and stroke.

How do ADP proteins and their receptors play a role in inflammation? 07/26/2020

ADP proteins and their receptors have been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammation. When tissues are damaged, platelets are activated and release a variety of pro-inflammatory molecules, including ADP. ADP can bind to P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptors on platelets and other cells, triggering the release of cytokines and chemokines that attract immune cells to the site of injury. In addition, ADP can activate immune cells directly, such as macrophages and T cells, causing them to release pro-inflammatory molecules.

What are some potential future directions for research on ADP proteins and their receptors? 05/08/2019

There are several potential future directions for research on ADP proteins and their receptors. One area of growing interest is the role of ADP receptors in the nervous system. Studies have shown that P2Y receptors are expressed in various regions of the brain and play a role in regulating synaptic transmission, neuroinflammation, and neuroprotection. Understanding the mechanisms by which ADP receptors modulate neural function could lead to the development of novel therapies for neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy.

Are there any side effects associated with drugs that target ADP proteins? 07/24/2018

Yes, there are potential side effects associated with drugs that target ADP proteins. For example, antiplatelet drugs that target the P2Y12 receptor can increase the risk of bleeding, including gastrointestinal bleeding and intracranial hemorrhage. These drugs are generally well-tolerated, however, and the benefits usually outweigh the risks.

What are some potential benefits of targeting ADP proteins in the medical field? 10/15/2017

Targeting ADP proteins, such as ADORA3, could have a range of potential benefits in the medical field. For example, ADORA3 is involved in regulating inflammation, and drugs that target this receptor could potentially be used to treat inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. Additionally, ADORA3 is involved in the regulation of immune cells, and targeting this receptor could potentially be used to treat autoimmune diseases or to modulate the immune response in cancer patients.

Are there any challenges associated with developing drugs that target ADP proteins? 10/16/2016

Yes, there are several challenges associated with developing drugs that target ADP proteins. One challenge is that these proteins are often involved in multiple physiological processes, and disrupting their function can have unintended consequences. For example, ADP is involved in blood clotting, and drugs that target this process could increase the risk of bleeding.

How do genetic variations in ADP receptors affect drug response and disease risk? 09/17/2016

Genetic variations in ADP receptors can affect drug response and disease risk in several ways. One common genetic variant in the P2Y12 receptor gene, called P2Y12-H2, has been shown to reduce the effectiveness of clopidogrel and increase the risk of cardiovascular events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This variant reduces the affinity of the P2Y12 receptor for clopidogrel, so patients with this variant may require higher doses of clopidogrel or alternative antiplatelet therapies to achieve adequate platelet inhibition.

How are ADP proteins involved in blood clotting? 02/29/2016

ADP plays an important role in blood clotting by activating platelets, which are small blood cells that help form blood clots to stop bleeding. When a blood vessel is damaged, platelets are activated and release ADP, which binds to specific receptors (P2Y1 and P2Y12) on the surface of other platelets, causing them to become activated as well. This initiates a cascade of events that ultimately leads to the formation of a blood clot.
