Quick Overview for FABP4 antibody (ABIN1169351)

Target: FABP4 (Fatty Acid Binding Protein 4, Adipocyte (FABP4))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This FABP4 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA

Product Details anti-FABP4 Antibody

Purpose: anti-FABP4 (human), pAb

Specificity: Recognizes human FABP4. Detects a band of ~15 kDa by Western blot.

Characteristics: Polyclonal Antibody. Recognizes human FABP4. Detects a band of ~15 kDa by Western blot. Source: Rabbit. Applications: ELISA, WB. Liquid. 0.2μm-filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Contains no preservatives. FABP4 is a fatty acid binding protein in adipocytes. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. FABPs regulate the fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism. aP2, the mouse form of FABP4, seems to be central to the pathway that links obesity to insulin resistance. aP2 was shown to be an adipokine linking adipocytes to hepatic glucose production and that neutralizing secreted aP2 may represent an effective therapeutic strategy against diabetes.

Sterility: 0.2 μm filtered

Immunogen: Recombinant human FABP4.
