Used in biomedical research to quantify levels of Small Heterodimer Partner (SHP) protein in rat tissue samples or cell lysates. This kit enables researchers to study the role of SHP in metabolic regulation, including liver function, glucose homeostasis, and lipid metabolism. It is particularly valuable in studies related to nuclear receptor signaling pathways, where SHP acts as a transcriptional repressor. The assay supports investigation into metabolic diseases such as diabetes, fatty liver disease, and obesity by providing a reliable method to measure SHP expression changes in response to drugs, hormones, or genetic modifications.
