General description

Amyloid Beta 1-40 (Aβ1-40) is a peptide that arises from the proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), a transmembrane protein thought to be involved in neuronal development and function. Aβ1-40 is one of the most common isoforms generated from APP, alongside Aβ1-42, which is more toxic and associated with the formation of amyloid plaques in neurodegenerative diseases.
Aβ1-40 plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer′s disease. Elevated levels of Aβ1-40 in the brain can contribute to neuroinflammation and neuronal damage, disrupting cell signaling and promoting the formation of amyloid plaques. These plaques are characteristic of AD and are believed to trigger a cascade of neurodegenerative processes, leading to cognitive decline and other symptoms associated with the disease. Understanding the function and implications of Aβ1-40 is essential for developing effective diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating its harmful effects in neurodegenerative conditions.

Application

Neuroscience/Neurological Disorders/Signaling

Biochem/physiol Actions

Although Amyloid Beta 40 was detectable in mouse and rat samples, the assay has not been verified for these species.

Features and Benefits

  • Exceptional Sensitivity: Detects Amyloid Beta 1-40 at femtogram levels, significantly outperforming conventional ELISA methods.
  • Wider Dynamic Range: Minimizes background interference to deliver clearer signals and improved assay reliability.
  • Optimized Workflow Efficiency: Automation-compatible reagents streamline lab processes and reduce manual intervention.
  • Experienced Technical Support: Supported by skilled field scientists and technical teams with expertise in SMC® assays.
