Descripción

Specificity

Recognizes Cocaine- and Amphetamine Related Transcript (CART). CART has been found to control satiety modulating the actions of two key regulators of food intake, leptin and NPY. Starvation decreases CART levels in the arcuate nucleus (Kristensen et al. 1998). Obese animals have virtually no CART. CART inhibits both normal and starvation-induced feeding, and completely inhibits NPY-induced feeding. Immunoneutralization of CART by administration of anti-CART resulted into higher food intake suggesting that CART is an endogenous regulator of food intake.

Immunogen

Mouse/rat CART peptide (55-102).
