Cortisol Antibody (XM210) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects cortisol in human samples through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cortisol, the most potent glucocorticoid produced by the human adrenal cortex, plays a crucial role in the body′s response to stress by regulating various physiological processes. Cortisol is synthesized from cholesterol, with production stimulated by pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which is regulated by corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). A negative feedback loop maintains cortisol balance, where elevated cortisol inhibits ACTH and CRF secretion. In the bloodstream, cortisol predominantly binds to corticosteroid binding globulin (CBG), also known as transcotin, which facilitates transport and bioavailability. Inside target cells, cortisol binds to specific intracellular receptors, triggering biological responses that include increasing blood pressure and blood sugar levels while suppressing immune function. Anti-cortisol antibody (XM210) enables researchers to study cortisol dynamics in various physiological and pathological conditions, providing valuable insights into stress response and metabolic regulation.
