| Formulation: | Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, pH 8.0.Contact us for customized product form or formulation. |
| Bio-Activity: | Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Recombinant Human Leptin at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Recombinant Human Leptin R/CD295 with a linear range of 1.22-261.45 ng/mL. |
| Reconstitution: | Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles. |
| Storage: | Store at -20℃.Store the lyophilized protein at -20℃ to -80 ℃ up to 1 year from the date of receipt. After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20℃ for 3 months, at 2-8℃ for up to 1 week. |
Leptin is one of the most important hormones secreted by white adipocytes, and which plays a major role in the regulation of body weight. This protein, which acts through the leptin receptor, functions as part of a signaling pathway that can inhibit food intake and/or regulate energy expenditure to maintain constancy of the adipose mass. This protein also has several endocrine functions, and is involved in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses, hematopoiesis, angiogenesis and wound healing. Mutations in this protein and/or its regulatory regions cause severe obesity, and morbid obesity with hypogonadism. This protein has also been linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus development.
