Product Details

Catalog Number: AF-450-31
Description:
Animal-Free Recombinant Murine Leptin

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.

Manufactured using all Animal-Free reagents.
