The Leptin Receptor Antibody (CAB2999) is a high-quality antibody developed for reliable detection and analysis of target proteins. This antibody is raised in rabbits and has been shown to be highly reactive with human samples, making it ideal for use in Western blot applications.The leptin receptor plays a crucial role in mediating the effects of leptin, a hormone that helps to regulate appetite and body weight. Dysregulation of the leptin receptor has been implicated in obesity and metabolic disorders, making it a target of interest in research on these conditions.
This antibody is validated for use in WB, IF/ICC, ELISA applications and has demonstrated reactivity against Human, Rat samples.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the gp130 family of cytokine receptors that are known to stimulate gene transcription via activation of cytosolic STAT proteins. This protein is a receptor for leptin (an adipocyte-specific hormone that regulates body weight), and is involved in the regulation of fat metabolism, as well as in a novel hematopoietic pathway that is required for normal lymphopoiesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with obesity and pituitary dysfunction. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. It is noteworthy that this gene and LEPROT gene (GeneID:54741) share the same promoter and the first 2 exons, however, encode distinct proteins (PMID:9207021).
