Anti-Leptin antibody produced in chicken has been used for the immunohistochemistry study of mouse embryo and ovum. It is suitable for western blotting at a working dilution of 1:500 and for cell staining at a working dilution of 1:200.
Biochem/physiol Actions
LEP (leptin) encoded protein plays a key role in the regulation of body weight. It is secreted by white adipocytes. It has a key role in regulating the signaling pathway that can inhibit food intake and/or control energy expenditure to maintain constancy of the adipose mass. It is also involved in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses, hematopoiesis, angiogenesis and wound healing. Defects in this gene can cause a rare disease characterized by low levels of serum leptin, severe hyperphagia and severe obesity, and morbid obesity with hypogonadism.

Leptin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, informs neuroendocrine pathways about the status of energy stores in adipose tissue. The integration of this peripheral signal in hypothalamic networks results in activation of peripheral metabolic pathways that control energy build-up and expenditure. Firing of
The assimilation, storage and use of energy from nutrients constitute a homeostatic system that is essential for life. In vertebrates, the ability to store sufficient quantities of energy-dense triglyceride in adipose tissue allows survival during the frequent periods of food

Leptin, the product of the ob gene, is a pleiotropic molecule that regulates food intake as well as metabolic and endocrine functions. Leptin also plays a regulatory role in immunity, inflammation, and hematopoiesis. Alterations in immune and inflammatory responses are
Nutritional deprivation suppresses immune function. The cloning of the obese gene and identification of its protein product leptin has provided fundamental insight into the hypothalamic regulation of body weight. Circulating levels of this adipocyte-derived hormone are proportional to fat mass

We report the expression cloning of a novel leptin-binding protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily (OB-BP1) and a cross-hybridizing clone (OB-BP2) that is identical to a recently described sialic acid-binding I-type lectin called Siglec-5. Comparisons to other known Siglec family members
