Platelet Derived Growth Factor Subunit A (PDGFA) is a member of Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family which plays a significant role in?blood vessel formation, the growth of blood vessels from already-existing blood vessel tissue, mitogenesis, i.e. proliferation, of mesenchymal cells such as fibroblasts, osteoblasts, tenocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells and mesenchymal stem cells as well as chemotaxis, the directed migration, of mesenchymal cells. Besides, Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor Alpha (PDGFRa) has been identified as an interactor of PDGFA, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human PDGFA and recombinant human PDGFRa. Briefly, PDGFA were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100μl were then transferred to PDGFRa-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37℃. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-PDGFA pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37℃. Finally, add 50μL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of PDGFA and PDGFRa was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.
