产品介绍 | | |
Recombinant human leptinis a leptin preparation made inE. coli. Leptin is a major adipose-derived hormone and member of the leptin family, which plays a key role in appetite control and the regulation of energy expenditure.Secreted leptin associates with proteins within the bloodstream and is transported to the brain, where it inhibits or up-regulates the activity of neuropeptides such as neuropeptide Y (NPY) and alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone respectively. Leptin is a recognised marker of obesity, with a correlation between circulating levels of leptin and body fat mass, and defects in leptin production result in severe obesity. Regulators of leptin expression include insulin, cortisol, cAMP and thiazolidinediones. |

Target Species | Human |
Product Form | Purified recombinant protein - lyophilized |
Preparation | Purified recombinant leptin expressed inE.coli. Sterile filtered through a 0.2 micron filter |
Reconstitution | Reconstitute with 1.0 ml distilled water. Care should be taken during reconstitution as the protein may appear as a film at the bottom of the vial. Bio-Rad recommend that the vial is gently mixed after reconstitution. For extended storage, the addition of 0.1% bovine serum abumin (BSA) is recommended. |
Buffer Solution | Lyophilized with 0.1% TFA |
