| MRGPRX2

Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor member X2 is a protein that is encoded by the MRGPRX2 gene. It is most abundant on cutaneous mast cells, sensory neurons, and keratinocytes.Activation of MRGPRX2 on mast cells leads to IgE-independent type 1 hypersensitivity-like symptoms, also known as pseudoallergic reactions, although more rapid and brief. Medications identified to cause MRGPRX2 activation including neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) (except for succinylcholine), antibiotics like DNA gyrase inhibitor fluoroquinolones or cell wall synthesis inhibitor vancomycin (which caused Red Man syndrome), icatibant, leuprolide, and morphine.
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

 

Concentration (ng/mL)	10	5	2.5	1.25	0.625	0.312	0.156	0
OD	2.15	1.72	1.4	1	0.67	0.48	0.33	0.1
Corrected OD	2.05	1.62	1.3	0.9	0.57	0.38	0.23	-

 

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%
 

| Recovery

The recovery of Human MRGPRX2 spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Tissue Homogenates(n=8)	92-105	102
Cell Lysates(n=8)	96-108	105

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human MRGPRX2 and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Tissue Homogenates(n=4)	Cell Lysates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	88-96	90-110
	Average (%)	92	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	87-108	105-115
	Average (%)	98	108
