Recombinant Rat Super Leptin Antagonist is supplied as a recombinant protein for in vitro research use.
Background
Leptin is a hormone which takes part in regulating body weight, metabolism and reproductive function and is encoded by the obese gene. Leptin is expressed predominantly by adipocytes, which fits with the idea that body weight is sensed as the total mass of fat in the body. Smaller amounts of leptin are also secreted by cellsin the epithelium of the stomach and in the placenta. Leptin receptors are expressed mainly in areas of the hypothalamus which regulates body weight, as well as in T lymphocytes and vascular endothelial cells.
Product format
Provided as a recombinant protein suitable for in vitro workflows such as binding studies, screening, and assay development. Refer to the specifications table for expression format and molecular properties.
