    Characteristics

    Purified recombinant Human Leptin protein
    Expression System: E.coli
    Bioactivity: Determined by an in vivo assay using the ob/ob mouse obesity model and NZO. Both strains of mice were treated via intraperitoneal injection once daily at a dose of 5ug leptin/gm of body weight for 7 days. Significant effects on body weight, food consumption, and plasma glucose levels were observed to saline-treated controls.

    Endotoxin Level

    < 0.1 ng per µg (1 EU/µg).

  • 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.
    Alternative Names: Obesity protein, OB protein

    Molecular Weight

    16.2 kDa
