Cayman Malonyl Coenzyme A (Lithium Salt); Purity- Greater Than Or

Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) is a member of the intracellular lipid-binding protein (iLBP) family. It is composed of a β-barrel, which forms the lipid-binding site, and two α-helices that form a lid on the β-barrel. FABP4 is primarily expressed in adipocytes but has also been found in activated macrophages.^, It is involved in lipid transport and metabolism, insulin resistance, and angiogenesis, and its expression is induced by long-chain fatty acids and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonists.^,,,, Knockout of Fabp4 prevents the development of atherosclerosis in ApoE^-/- mice and increases body weight gain and insulin sensitivity in ob/ob mice.^, Serum levels of FABP4 are increased in patients with colorectal cancer, and serum and synovial fluid levels of FABP4 are increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.^, Cayman’s FABP4 Polyclonal Antibody can be used for immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and Western blot (WB) applications.
