Product Description

Human Cystatin C is a small protein molecule that plays a significant role in inhibiting cysteine proteases, a class of enzymes involved in various physiological processes. Belonging to the cystatin superfamily, it is a member of the type 2 cystatin family. With a molecular weight of approximately 13 kDa, Human Cystatin C is primarily synthesized in nucleated cells and is freely filtered by the glomerulus in the kidneys. Due to its stable production rate and constant secretion into the bloodstream, Cystatin C has emerged as a reliable biomarker for estimating glomerular filtration rate, making it a valuable tool in assessing renal function.
