Application

Anti-PPAR γ Antibody, isoform 1&2 is a Mouse Monoclonal Antibody for detection of PPAR gamma also known as Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor γ & has been validated in ELISA, ICC & WB.

General description

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors involved in lipid transport and metabolism. As such, their roles in chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis and cancer are heavily investigated. Transcriptional activity of PPARs is regulated by fatty acid binding. Three PPAR isotypes have been identified: a, b and g. PPARg stimulates lipolysis of circulating triglycerides and the subsequent uptake of fatty acids into adipose cells. PPARs can bind to DNA only as a heterodimer with the retinoid X receptor (RXR).

Immunogen

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Specificity

Reacts with human PPAR gamma2. The antibody also reacts with PPAR gamma1 due to immunogen sequence homology. The immunogen shows no homology with PPAR alpha or PPAR beta.
