The Mouse Periostin ELISA is a quantitative immunoassay for the determination of mouse periostin in serum and plasma samples. Periostin (OSF-2) is secreted as a 91 kDa homodimer. It is a soluble extracellular matrix protein expressed in collagen-rich fibrous connective tissues that is involved in osteoblast recruitment, attachment and spreading. Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.

Periostin (OSF-2) is secreted as a 91 kDa homodimeric soluble extracellular matrix protein expressed in collagenrich fibrous connective tissues. Periostin is involved in osteoblast recruitment, attachment and spreading. It has been associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in cancer and with the differentiation of mesenchyme in the developing heart. Periostin has functions in osteology, tissue repair, oncology, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, and in various inflammatory settings. There are at least 7 isoforms of Periostin, caused by alternative splicing (http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q15063).
