Procollagen II N-Terminal Propeptide (PIINP), Bovine, ELISA Kit

Description

Product Code:SEA257BoProduct:Procollagen II N-Terminal Propeptide (PIINP), Bovine, ELISA KitBackground:Procollagen II C peptide is used as a joint fluid marker of collagen synthesis by chondrocytes in patients with osteoarthritis. Since osteochondromatosis activates ectopic chondrogenesis in the synovial membrane, procollagen II C peptide is expected to be a good marker of the disease. Procollagen II C peptide can be used to evaluate the condition of the disease metabolically by simply aspirating the joint fluid.the concentration of procollagen II C peptide is a good marker of chondrogenesis by osteochondromatosis. Body mass index showed a slightly positive association with baseline PIICP level. In multiple linear regression analyses adjusted for age and body mass index, radiographic JSN over four years had a direct positive correlation with baseline PIICP leve.the prognostic value of procollagen type II carboxy-terminal propeptide (PIICP) level in synovial fluid in relation to early tibiofemoral joint osteoarthritis (OA).Synonyms:P2CP, C-Propeptide Of Type II Procollagen, Procollagen II Carboxy Terminal PropeptideSpecies:BovineDetection range:78-5,000pg/mLSensitivity:34pg/mLConfiguration:12x8Intended Use: For Research Use Only
