摘要:A noncompetitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to measure rat hepatic triglyceride lipase (H-TGL) was developed. Antibodies to rat H-TGL were purified from goat antisera by immunoadsorption on an H-TGL-Sepharose 4B column. Routinely, Immulon 2 Removawell strips were coated with the purified antibody overnight at 4 degrees C. After blocking the wells with bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 2 hr at room temperature, standards (0.85 ng/ml-13.1 ng/ml) or samples were added to the wells and were incubated with the bound anti-rat H-TGL overnight at 4 degrees C. The standards and samples had been pretreated with 5-20 mM SDS for 30 min at room temperature and were then diluted so that the final SDS concentration in the assay was 1 mM or less. The pretreatment with SDS was necessary to achieve maximal immunoreactivity. The sample incubation was followed by an overnight incubation at 4 degrees C with an anti-rat H-TGL-horseradish peroxidase conjugate. Rat H-TGL was detected by the color development after the addition of 0.4 mg/ml of o-phenylenediamine in 0.01% H2O2, 0.1 M citrate phosphate, pH 5.0. A linear relationship was obtained between absorbance at 490 nm and the amount of highly purified rat H-TGL used as a standard. Inclusion of 1 M NaCl in the assay buffer (1% BSA, 0.05% Tween 20, 10 mM phosphate, pH 7.4) during the sample and conjugate incubations minimized non-specific interactions. Recoveries of purified rat H-TGL added to a rat liver perfusate sample ranged from 98.6% to 103%.( TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
