Article Snippet: Specifically, total human sRAGE included the detection of both cRAGE and esRAGE variants (DY1145, Human RAGE DuoSet ELISA, R&D Systems Inc., MN, USA) and esRAGE concentration was evaluated by an ELISA assay with an antibody raised against the exclusive C-terminal amino acids (332–347) sequence (K1009-1, B-bridge International, CA, USA). cRAGE was determined by subtracting esRAGE from sRAGE as already described [ , , ].
