Recently, it has become clear that Sirtuin is linked to longevity and plays a role in NAD+ level regulation. Also Sirtuin has been recognized as a marker necessary to understanding biological states, such as obesity & diabetes, as well as cellular differentiation. Cell lysate from a cell culture can be easily prepared via Deproteinzation using the extraction buffer and filtration tubes found within this kit. Intracellular NADH levels can be quantified by heat treatment of cell lysate. Additionally, intracellular NAD+ levels can be determined by subtracting NADH levels from independently measured total NAD+/NADH levels. NAD/NADH Assay Kit-WST enables quantification of the amount of total NAD+/NADH, NADH and NAD+ in cells and measurement of their ratio. Dojindo has various quantification kits of Intracellular Metabolites. (https://www.dojindo.com/quantification-of-intracellular-metabolites/)

Cayman Chemical CholesTRol Uptake CelBased 1ea
Maintaining body cholesterol homeostasis is critical for normal physiological functions and is achieved by a highly regulated balance of de novo synthesis, dietary cholesterol absorption, biliary clearance, and excretion. The mechanisms controlling cholesterol absorption are important to understand for the prevention and treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Cayman’s Cholesterol Uptake Cell-Based Assay Kit provides a convenient tool for studying cholesterol absorption modulators. The kit employs NBD Cholesterol, a fluorescently tagged cholesterol, as a probe for the detection of cholesterol taken up by cultured cells. U-18666A, a cholesterol intracellular trafficking inhibitor, is included as a positive control.
