Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes fibroblast growth factor 21 (gene FGF21) in human samples and is validated for ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 22.3 kDa.
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is an endocrine FGF made mainly by the liver in response to fasting and nutritional stress. It signals through FGF receptors together with the coreceptor β-Klotho to increase glucose uptake in fat cells and improve insulin sensitivity. FGF21 is widely studied in energy metabolism, obesity and metabolic disease.
