Pregnancy associated plasma protein-A2 (PAPP-A2) is a novel metalloproteinase identified as a homolog of PAPP-A in the metzincin superfamily of pappalysins. PAPP-A2 shares 46% sequence identity with PAPP-A. PAPP-A2 is a noncovalently linked dimer of two 220-kDa subunits. It exhibits robust proteolytic activity against IGFBP-5 and possibly also IGFBP-3.  PAPP-A2 is expressed in a wide range of tissues and is abundant in placent…

The Ansh Labs' Equine Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is the only AMH assay designed specifically for use in horses. Multiple validation studies have shown excellent distinction between castrated geldings and intact stallions. AMH is also an excellent tool in the evaluation of equine granulosa cell tumors (GCT) and cryptochordism.  

The Ansh Labs' Canine Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is the only AMH assay designed specifically for use in canine. AMH measurements in canines are particularly useful in confirming that spay procedures have been done correctly leaving no remnant ovarian tissue.  

The Follistatin enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit provides materials for the quantitative measurement of total follistatin (288, 300, 315) in human serum and other biological fluids.

IGFBP-3 exhibits intrinsic growth-regulating effects that are not yet fully understood, but have evoked interest with regards to a possible role of IGFBP-3 as a prognostic tumor marker. Low IGFBP-3 and IGF-I levels are observed in GH deficiency or GH resistance, also epidemiologic studies suggest that low IGFBP-3 is associated with greater risk of aggressive, metastatic prostate cancers. 

The Total IGFBP-5 enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit provides materials for the quantitative measurement of IGFBP-5 in human serum and other biological fluids

Several studies have shown that concentration of PAPP-A in blood of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is higher than in blood of patients with stable coronary artery disease or control subjects. PAPP-A has been suggested as a marker of cardiovascular diseases associated with coronary artery blood clotting, such as unstable angina and myocardial infarction (MI). 

Dried blood spot specimens stability makes it a practical alternative to venous blood. It opens new possibilities in AMH testing, such as comparison of historical to current patient results; simplified blood sampling for patients in remote locations or for those who are homebound. Instead of traveling to a clinic to get blood drawn, a blood spot sample can be taken at a convenient site and mailed to a laboratory. 

The Insulin-Like Growth Factor II (IGF-II) enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit provides materials for the quantitative measurement of IGF-II in serum and other biological fluids

The Total Inhibin enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit provides materials for the quantitative measurement of Total inhibin (Inhibin A, Inhibin B and Inhibin alpha subunit) in human serum, plasma and other biological fluids.  

The Rat and Mouse Free IGF-I ELISA kit uses species specific calibrators and has been optimized to work with small sample sizes

The Rat and Mouse Total IGF-I ELISA kit uses species specific calibrators and has been optimized to work with small sample sizes

The Unconjugated Estriol Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) Kit provides materials for the quantitative measurement of unconjugated estriol in serum.

Follistatin-like 3 (FSTL-3), also known as Follistatin-related Accurate Gene (FLRG) and Follistatin-related protein (FSRP), is a 30-35 kDa secreted glycoprotein. FSTL-3 encodes a novel secreted glycoprotein that is highly homologous to follistatin and binds activins and bone morphogenetic proteins, members of the TGF beta superfamily of growth/differentiation  factors. 

Ansh Labs AMH Tri-Level Controls are intended for use as assay quality controls to monitor the precision and reproducibility of laboratory testing methods for the determination of AMH in serum, plasma or other biological fluids.  Tri-level controls are run as unknowns against kit calibrators in any human AMH assays.  

Ansh Labs Inhibin B Tri-Level Controls are intended for use as assay quality controls to monitor the precision and reproducibility of laboratory testing methods for the determination of Inhibin B in serum, plasma or other biological fluids.  Tri-level controls are run as unknowns against kit calibrators in any human Inhibin B assays.  

In breast cancer STC2 is induced by estrogen and STC2 expression levels correlate with levels of estrogen receptor. STC2 function in different cancers may involve regulation of cell proliferation, neoplastic transformation and endothelial invasion. STC2 also plays a role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition by activation of MAPK/ERK signaling in hypoxic ovarian cancer cells. 

The Mouse Activin B enzyme linked immunuosorbent assay (ELISA) kit provides materials for the quantitative measurement of Activin B in mouse serum and other biological fluids

IGFBP-3 exhibits intrinsic growth-regulating effects that are not yet fully understood, but have evoked interest with regards to a possible role of IGFBP-3 as a prognostic tumor marker. Low IGFBP-3 and IGF-I levels are observed in GH deficiency or GH resistance, also epidemiologic studies suggest that low IGFBP-3 is associated with greater risk of aggressive, metastatic prostate cancers. 

Although the C-peptide of insulin is biologically inactive, it has a longer circulating half-life than insulin and undergoes relatively minimal hepatic metabolism. In addition, C-peptide of insulin assays may be analytically more sensitive than insulin assays. Because of these factors, measurement of C-peptide of insulin may be useful in evaluating insulin secretion in a variety of clinical conditions.  

The Ansh Labs' Ovine Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is the only AMH assay designed specifically for use in sheep
