General description

Neutrophil elastase (NE) is a serine protease that hydrolyzes proteins within the azurophilic granules of the neutrophils. Once secreted, it digests collagen-VI and elastin of the extracellular matrix. Neutrophil elastase is implicated in cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congenital neutropenia, and lung cancer.

Features and Benefits

Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.

Suitability

Suitable for the screening of inhibitors of Neutrophil Elastase.

Principle

The Neutrophil Elastase Inhibitor Screening Kit is a rapid, sensitive and high throughput assay to screen and characterize potential inhibitors of NE. NE activity is measured by hydrolyzing the substrate to yield a fluorescent product (λex = 400/λem = 505 nm) proportional to the enzymatic activity present.
