Prealbumin (TTR) is a hormone-binding protein that participates in the plasma transport of both thyroxine and retinol (vitamin A). Prealbumin concentrations are disproportionately high in human ventricular cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is reported to be either selectively transported across or synthesized within the blood-CSF barrier. Over 80 different disease-causing mutations in prealbumin have been reported. The vast majority is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner and is related to amyloid deposition, affecting predominantly peripheral nerve and/or the heart. A small portion of prealbumin mutations are apparently non-amyloidogenic. The human amyloid disorders, familial amyloid polyneuropathy, familial amyloid cardiomyopathy and senile systemic amyloidosis, are caused by insoluble prealbumin fibrils. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
