    Characteristics

    Murine Leptin has been shown to be biologically active in two different mouse obesity models, ob/ob and NZO. Both strains of mice were treated via intraperitoneal injection once daily at a dose of 5 μg Leptin/gm of body weight for 14 days. Significant effects on body weight , food consumption, and plasma glucose levels were observed to saline - treated controls

    Endotoxin Level

    Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1 EU/μg).

    Handling Advice

    As with any protein, exposing Leptin recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.

    Storage

    -20 °C

    Storage Comment

    The recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20 °C. Reconstituted Leptin is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20 °C.

    Expiry Date

    24 months
  • Target

    Leptin (LEP)

    Alternative Name

    Leptin

    Background

    Encoded by the ob (obese) gene, Leptin is an adipose-derived cytokine that suppresses appetite and increases thermogenesis. Leptin exerts its anorectic effect via signaling through a hypothalamic receptor termed OB-R. Leptin has been shown to reduce body weight, food consumption, and plasma glucose levels in various in vivo models. Recombinant murine Leptin is a 16.2 kDa protein containing 147 amino acid residues.
