Application

Rabbit Anti-PPARG has been used at a dilution of 1:50 for IHC applications. It can also be used for western blot at 1.25 μg/ml.

Rabbit polyclonal anti-PPARG (AB1) antibody is used to tag peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/glitazone for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/glitazone receptor in lipid and glucose metabolism, adipocyte differentiation and potential associated diseases such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, and cancer.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PPARG is a regulator of adipocyte differentiation. Additionally, PPAR-gamma has been implicated in the pathology of numerous diseases including obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cancer.

General description

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/glitazone receptor (PPARG, NR1C3) is a type II nuclear receptor involved in the regulation of fatty acid storage and glucose metabolism. PPARG activation stimulates lipid uptake and adipocyte differention/adipogenesis. PPARG is a component of pathologies such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, and cancer. PPARG helps regulate the inflammatory response of endothelial cells.

Rabbit polyclonal anti-PPARG (AB1) antibody reacts with bovine, canine, human, mouse, rat, chicken, rabbit, and pig peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma/glitazone receptors.
