Description :

Secretory Leukocyte Peptidase Inhibitor Protein (SLPI) ELISA

Assay Background :

The Secretory Leukocyte Peptidase Inhibitor Protein (SLPI) ELISA assay kit is a secreted inhibitor which protects epithelial tissues from serine proteases. It is found in various secretions including seminal plasma, cervical mucus, and bronchial secretions, and has affinity for trypsin, leukocyte elastase, and cathepsin G. Its inhibitory effect contributes to the immune response by protecting epithelial surfaces from attack by endogenous proteolytic enzymes. The SLPI (ALP) protein is also thought to have broad-spectrum antibiotic activity.
