- Extra Details:
- Anti-Ffar4 Antibody was designed, produced, and validated as part of the Joy Cappel Young Investigator Award (JCYIA). Free Fatty Acid 4 receptor (Ffa4 receptor or GPR120), a rhodopsin-like G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) subfamily member, is a receptor that senses specific fatty acids such as omega-3 fatty acid in fish oil or the endogenous signaling lipid, PHASA. Ffa4 receptor is enriched in lung, colon and adipose tissue but is also detected in many other tissues and cells. The activation of Ffar4 has multiple effects, including but not limited to inhibition of inflammation, improving insulin sensitivity and adipogenesis, and regulating hormone secretion from the gastro-intestinal system and pancreatic islets. Therefore, approaches that regulate FFA4 receptor activity could be developed as promising anti-diabetic and anti-inflammation drugs. GPR120 is the only fatty acid receptor that can sense lipids in adipose tissue, mature adipocytes, CD11c+ macrophages, and RAW264.7 cells making this receptor of potential importance in the prevention and treatment of metabolic and inflammatory diseases.
- Formulation:
- 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2
- Host:
- Rabbit
- Immunogen:
- Affinity purified Anti-Ffar4 antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide near the N-terminus portion of mouse Ffar4 protein.
- Isotype:
- IgG
- Physical State:
- Liquid
- Reactivities:
- Mouse, Rat
- Shipping Conditions:
- Dry Ice
- Specificity:
- Anti-Ffar4 is directed against mouse Ffar4 at a n-terminal position. This product is an affinity purified antibody produced by immunoaffinity chromatography using peptide coupled to agarose beads. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest reactivity with this protein in rat based on 100% homology match for the immunogen sequence.
- Storage Conditions:
- -20[o]C diluted. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
