| Description | The Collagenase-Elastase blend is a tissue dissociation enzyme cocktail for cell isolation. The tissue dissociation process consists in the release of functional and viable cells from animal tissue, with minimal impact on the cell’s viability. The main reagent used for the tissue dissociation The Collagenase-Elastase blend is a tissue dissociation enzyme cocktail for cell isolation. The tissue dissociation process consists in the release of functional and viable cells from animal tissue, with minimal impact on the cell’s viability. The main reagent used for the tissue dissociation process is Collagenase. Collagenases are enzymes that break down the native collagen that holds animal tissues together. The second enzyme found in our blend is Elastase: a serine protease that also hydrolyzes amides and esters. It is produced in the pancreas as an inactive zymogen and activated in the duodenum by trypsin. While elastase will hydrolyze a wide variety of protein substrates, it is unique among proteases in its ability to hydrolyze native elastin, a substrate not attacked by trypsin, chymotrypsin or pepsin. Elastin, a matrix component of tissues involved in stretching processes, is found in highest concentrations in the elastic fibers of connective tissues. Elastase is frequently used to dissociate tissues which contain extensive intercellular fiber networks. For this purpose, it is usually used with other enzymes such as collagenase, trypsin, and chymotrypsin. Elastase is the enzyme of choice for the isolation of Type II cells from the lung...

Acts via MyD88, TIRAP and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. Up-regulates cell surface molecules, including adhesion molecules.Background：CD14 is a 55 kDa cell surface glycoprotein that is preferentially expressed on monocytes/macrophages. The human CD14 cDNA encodes a 375 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a 19 aa signal peptide and a C-terminal hydrophobic region characteristic for glycosylphosphatidyinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins. Human CD14 has four potential N-linked glycosylation sites and also bears O-linked carbohydrates. The amino acid sequence of human CD14 is approximately 65% identical with the mouse, rat, rabbit, and bovine proteins. CD14 is a pattern recognition receptor that binds lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and a variety of ligands derived from different microbial sources. The binding of CD14 with LPS is catalyzed by LPS-binding protein (LBP). The toll-like-receptors have also been implicated in the transduction of CD14-LPS signals. Similar to other GPI-anchored proteins, soluble CD14 can be released from the cell surface by phosphatidyinositol-specific phospholipase C. Soluble CD14 has been detected in serum and body fluids. High concentrations of soluble CD14 have been shown to inhibit LPS-mediated responses. However, soluble CD14 can also potentiate LPS response in cells that do not express cell surface CD14...
