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).
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.
Immunogen
Epitope: isoform 1&2
Synthetic peptide from amino acids 107-121 of human PPAR gamma2.
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.
